The Atlantis spacecraft landed on the ISS smoothly
According to the US Aerospace Agency (NASA), on the morning of September 11, space shuttle Atlantis docked at the International Space Station (ISS) smoothly.

From inside the ship, astronaut Jeff Williams informed the control center on the ground: Everything went very well.
NASA said that Atlantis's arrival in ISS marks the restoration of ISS construction.
The Atlantis ships carry a support and a new set of solar cells for the ISS. After the support frame is assembled into ISS, the crew will conduct three aerial walks to carry out the work of preparing the new solar battery.
This is the first trip to assemble equipment into the ISS station since the 2003 Columbia spacecraft accident
On September 12, Atlantis and Expedition 13 astronauts (currently at ISS) will have their first walk out of space to assemble the frame. About an hour before this trip, Atlantis will make a short flight for astronauts to photograph the abdomen of this ship.
Photos will be sent to engineers on earth for analysis. They will consider whether there is any damage to the Atlantis ship's heat shield in the process of leaving the earth.
