Tani Is Coming Home Jana Passova


Bigger and better scientific outpost was finished in orbit. It took more than a week to the crew to finish a mission.An arrive of Atlantis was scheduled on Monday. On the board of the shuttle was seven members of the crew. Without a space laboratory Columbus on the board it was incomparably lighter than it was on Feb. 9 when it was leaving the earth. Daniel Tani was in space 4 months. He was very emotional when he was leaving his space home. He could not forget to farewell with his two female commanders Peggy Whitson and Pmale Melroy. They delivered him back to orbit in October. During his "trip" to space his mother Rose died by an car accident. Jane, Tani's wife, and their two little daughters could not wait for his comeback home. Tani will bring home a video from his space visit. It can remind him how he was floating through the space station up and down with his nine colleagues last week. Once it will probably be as funny for him and his family as movies which he saw on TV 25 years ago. NASA is planning to finish mission of Atlantis on Wednesday. If nothing change, a succesful mission will finish after 13 days. Two places are prepared to welcome Atlantis. One of them is Kennedy Space Center and in case there will be some problems the second one is landig site in California. After Atlantis will land on the Earth, millitary will destroy a damaged spy satellite. The next shuttle flight to orbit is planned on March 11.
