My currently up to date GitHub Desktop is v 3.3.4.0 which does have an Atom button to launch it. It looks like you fell behind on updates. Try going to About... on the Settings menu at the right and you should see an option to update. If not maybe a fresh reinstall from the source is in order.

0.5.5 is the beta. if you scroll down you'll see the "Not ready for beta?" download that and the open in atom should be there =)
