    AtlantisSpace shuttle Atlantis landed safely NASA's Florida spaceport Friday morning after an 11-day flight to resupply the International Space Station.


    The shuttle undocked from the International Space Station early Wednesday morning, ending its one-week visit. Pilot Barry "Butch" Wilmore was at the controls.


    Two of Atlantis' crew members were especially eager to get home.


    Astronaut Nicole Stott has been in orbit since late August. She says she misses her husband and 7-year-old son, being in the sunshine, and pizza.


    NASA's new dad in space, Randolph Bresnik, wants to see his baby daughter as soon as possible. Abigail Mae Bresnik was born Saturday night in Houston, shortly after his first spacewalk.
