Photographic Delight: Two Space Shuttles await Flight

Following Endeavour's arrival a top launch pad 39-B early this morning, the rotating service structure for launch pad 39-A was swung back to expose Atlantis this afternoon - a photographic delight.

In the top and next image, Atlantis is on launch pad 39-A at left, while Endeavour sits on pad B, or the northern pad geographically.

In what will likely be the last time two space shuttle's occupy the launch pads at the same time, these great images were taken moments ago showing both pads here at Kennedy Space Center.
