As the final inspection team and close out crew entered the pad, the excitement in the air was palpable. With weather conditions looking good, the countdown to liftoff began. And when the Astro Van carrying the STS-132 Atlantis crew arrived at the pad, the cheers from the crowd were deafening.

As the crew members boarded Atlantis, their launch and entry suits were carefully checked and double-checked. And as they settled into their seats, you could see the determination and focus on their faces. For some, this would be their first spaceflight, while others were seasoned veterans. But all of them knew that they had a job to do, and they were ready to do it.
