The Orbiter

The final flight of the Space Shuttle Atlantis, unless of course we get an STS 135 which would be an Atlantis flight.

This final mission will have 3 spacewalks, and will deliver a bunch of things to the International Space station, including a Russian mini module node.

It will be Atlantis's 32nd flight. The current mileage on this shuttle is 115 million miles. And it will be one of the shuttles that doesn't end up in the smithsonian air and space annex near Dulles Airport in Northern Va. (Enterprise already there will be joined by Discovery)
