CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., June 19 (Reuters) - Space shuttle Atlantis slipped out of its docking port at the International Space Station on Tuesday after a nine-day servicing call.

Atlantis parted with the space station at 10:42 a.m. EDT (1442 GMT) after a visit that saw astronauts install a new set of solar power panels and help prepare the outpost for European and Japanese laboratories to be attached in the future.
