Space Shuttle Atlantis Attempts Perilous Mission


Today, for the first time in his history, NASA space shuttle, Atlantis, will attempt a perilous mission to repair the Hubble Space Telescope. This task will consist of 5 space walks 300 miles above the surface of the earth in a dangerous orbit littered with apace debris. The mission is so risky, that the space shuttle, Endeavor, stands ready to lift off if needed to attempt a space rescue of the Atlantis crew if something goes terribly wrong with the repairs. American exceptionalism is once again on display for the world to see and the staff of The Last Tradition wishes our intrepid astronauts God speed.
