When Atlantis lifts off in July on the final mission for the space shuttle program, it will do so decorated with ‘nose art.’ More specifically, its external fuel tank, ET-138, will be outfitted with a painted intertank access door displaying the commemorative logo for NASA’s 30-year space shuttle program. The decorated door marks just the second time that the shuttle has flown with markings other than the U.S. flag and NASA insignia.
