The Space Shuttle Atlantis rolls out to Launch Pad 39A on April 26, 1995, aboard the crawler-transporter in preparation for the STS-71 mission. Atlantis will dock with the Russian Mir Space Station for four days during the 11-day mission with the Orbiter Docking System in Atlantis' payload bay. Also onboard is the Spacelab-Mir module which will be used as a flying laboratory for joint U.S.-Russian medical investigations.
