Photo Description The crew of Space Shuttle mission STS-114 gathered for a press brief following landing at Edwards Air Force Base, California, 5:11 am, August 9, 2005. Left to right: Mission Specialists Charles Camarda, Wendy Lawrence and Stephen Robinson, Commander Eileen Collins at microphone, Mission Specialists Andrew Thomas and Soichi Noguchi, and Pilot James Kelly. Space Shuttle Discovery landed safely at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base in California at 5:11:22 a.m. PDT this morning, following the very successful 14-day STS-114 return to flight mission. During their two weeks in space, Commander Eileen Collins and her six crewmates tested out new safety procedures and delivered supplies and equipment the International Space Station. Discovery spent two weeks in space, where the crew demonstrated new methods to inspect and repair the Shuttle in orbit. The crew also delivered supplies, outfitted and performed maintenance on the International Space Station. A number of these tasks were conducted during three spacewalks. In an unprecedented event, spacewalkers were called upon to remove protruding gap fillers from the heat shield on Discovery's underbelly. In other spacewalk activities, astronauts installed an external platform onto the Station's Quest Airlock and replaced one of the orbital outpost's Control Moment Gyroscopes. Inside the Station, the STS-114 crew conducted joint operations with the Expedition 11 crew. They unloaded fresh supplies from the Shuttle and the Raffaello Multi-Purpose Logistics Module. Before Discovery undocked, the crews filled Raffeallo with unneeded items and returned to Shuttle payload bay. Discovery launched on July 26 and spent almost 14 days on orbit.

Mir Above
Title Mir Above
Explanation Photographed from [ http://shuttle-mir.nasa.gov/shuttle-mir/photos/sts89/ esc/Flightday09/ ] the approaching Space Shuttle Endeavour [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap961130.html ], the Mir space station floats above the clouds of planet Earth. Mir's modular construction [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/osf/mir/ ], bristling with solar panels and antennas, lends it a slightly whimsical [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap960603.html ], insect-like appearance. Astronaut Andrew Thomas [ http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/thomas-a.html ] was dropped off at Mir by Endeavour in January and recently picked up by the Space Shuttle Discovery during STS-91 [ http://www.imoc.com/sts-91/ ], the ninth and last Mir docking mission. Thomas' 4 1/2 month stay culminates the shuttle-Mir program [ http://shuttle-mir.nasa.gov/shuttle-mir/ ] in which seven U.S. astronauts spent a total of 977 days with Russian crews on board Mir. The experience gained will be applied toward the construction [ http://station.nasa.gov/reference/factsheets/index.html#firstflights ] of the International Space Station [ http://station.nasa.gov/ ] scheduled to begin with launches in November and December 1998 [ http://station.nasa.gov/news/pressrel/ksc66-98.html ].

Title MS Garneau and Thomas observe SPACEHAB testing
Description Chris Jaskolka of McDonnell Douglas (left) shows STS-77 Mission Specialists Marc Garneau (Canadian Space Agency) and Andrew Thomas equipment inside the SPACEHAB-4 during the Crew Equipment Interface Test (CEIT) at the SPACEHAB processing facility in Port Canaveral. During a CEIT, Shuttle flight crew members have the opportunity to get a first-hand look at the payload hardware they will be working with on-orbit. The SPACEHAB-4 mini-laboratory is one of the primary payloads of the upcoming Mission STS-77 and a variety of materials processing and biotechnology experiments will be housed inside the pressurized module. McDonnell Douglas integrates the SPACEHAB modules under contract to SPACEHAB Inc.
