Atlantis Shuttle Safely Back To Earth

The shuttle made a perfect landing on runway 33 at Nasa's Kennedy Space Center just after 0621 EDT (1021 GMT), ending a 12-day mission to re-start construction of the International Space Station (ISS).

"Nice to be back. It was a great team effort. Assembly is off to a good start," said Atlantis' commander Brent Jett after the landing.
