Atlantis departs Launch pad 39A on her 35th and last scheduled launch.  She is beginning her roll program which will put her in the upside down attitude for the correct angle for orbital insertion. The water deluge system is activated seconds before launch and the resultant large white clouds are caused by the rocket and engine heat.
