KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -  The orbiter Atlantis rolls toward the Orbiter Processing Facility after spending 10 days in the Vehicle Assembly Building.  The hiatus in the VAB allowed work to be performed in the OPF that can only be accomplished while the bay is empty. Work included annual validation of the bay's cranes, work platforms, lifting mechanisms and jack stands.  Work resumes to prepare Atlantis for launch in September 2004 on the first return-to-flight mission, STS-114.
