The Advanced Thin Ionization Calorimeter (ATIC) balloon experiment completed a 19.7 day science flight, 29 Dec. 02 to 18 Jan. 03, from McMurdo, Antarctica, yielding 67 Gbytes of science data. The instrument was fully recovered just over the trans-Antarctic mountain range. ATIC is designed to make new measurements of the composition and energy spectra of cosmic rays in the region up to 100 TeV total energy. The flight and the instrument performance are described and compared to the ATIC-1 flight from 2000-01, and some preliminary results are discussed.
