NASA STS-129 Rendezvous Pitch Maneuver

 rendezvous

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hobaugh will maneuver Atlantis through a back flip rotation to expose the heat shield when Atlantis is about 600 feet from the station. The photos will be transmitted to mission control for checking and evaluation to determine whether the heat shield sustained any damaged and problems during launch.

If your one of the NASA fans you can save the video directly.
