Shuttle launch: Atlantis good to go

NASA’s shuttle Atlantis is due to launch at 4:30 p.m. EDT on Sunday 27 August – only the third launch since Columbia broke up in re-entry in 2003.

Geoff Brumfiel will be on the site and blogging here with live updates. So stay tuned this weekend for behind-the-scenes reports.

You can also catch up on the shuttle programme with our interactive special.
