SPACE SHUTTLE	SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY	STS-61C	STS-61-C was the 24th mission of NASA’s Space Shuttle program, and the seventh mission of Space Shuttle Columbia. The mission in November 1983, after having undergone major modifications over the course of 18 months by Rockwell International in California. Most notable of these modifications was the addition of the SILTS (Shuttle Infrared Leeside Temperature Sensing) pod atop Columbia’s vertical stabilizer, which used an infrared camera to observe reentry heating on the shuttle’s left wing and part of its fuselage.

SPACE SHUTTLE	SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY	STS 31	The main purpose of this mission was to deploy Hubble. It was designed to operate above the Earth’s turbulent and obscuring atmosphere to observe celestial objects at ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared wavelengths. The Hubble mission was a joint NASA-ESA (European Space Agency) effort going back to the late 1970s.	STEVEN UDVAR HAZY	CHANTILLY	VIRGINIA
SPACE SHUTTLE	SPACE SHUTTLE ATLANTIS	STS 45	STS-45 carried the first Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science (ATLAS-1) experiments, placed on Spacelab pallets mounted in the orbiter’s payload bay. The non-deployable payload, equipped with 12 instruments from the United States, France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Japan, conducted studies in atmospheric chemistry, solar radiation, space plasma physics and ultraviolet astronomy.

SPACE SHUTTLE	SPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERY	STS 60	STS-60 was the first mission of the U.S./Russian Shuttle-Mir Program, which carried Sergei K. Krikalev, the first Russian cosmonaut to fly aboard a Space Shuttle. The mission used NASA Space Shuttle Discovery, which lifted off from Launch Pad 39A on February 3, 1994, from Kennedy Space Center, Florida. The mission carried the Wake Shield Facility experiment and a SPACEHAB module, developed by SPACEHAB Inc., into orbit, and carried out a live bi-directional audio and downlink link-up with the cosmonauts aboard the Russian space station Mir.
