NASA has confirmed that the space shuttle Atlantis returned safely to Earth on Sunday.

The Atlantis shuttle had a rough go of it trying to land back on Earth after a few days of being hit with major delays.

These delays were caused by a series of bad weather events which kept Atlantis up in the air.

The space shuttle Atlantis was returning home after a 13-day repair mission to the Hubble Space Telescope.

The landing took place at the Edwards Air Force base on California.

This trip marked the final repair mission to the Hubble Space Telescope.
