This overhead view, photographed in the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, shows workers attaching a crane to shuttle Atlantis. The crane lifted the spacecraft into a high bay where it was attached to the waiting external fuel tank and solid rocket boosters already on the mobile launcher platform.
