Duration: 3 days, 1 hour, 33 minutes, 23 seconds Landed: 27 January 1985 at 4:23:23 P.M. EST Kennedy Space Center, FL Mission Highlights: First Department of Defense mission. Resurrection of the cancelled STS-10 mission. Extreme security surrounding preparation and training. Payload classified; reportedly the Magnum satellite, a National Security Agency satellite to monitor military transmissions from the Soviet Union and China.

STS-31 (Discovery) · Crew: Commander Loren J. Shriver, Pilot Charles F. Bolden, Mission Specialist 1 Steven A. Hawley, Mission Specialist 2 Bruce McCandless II, Mission Specialist 3 Kathryn D. Sullivan · Launched: 24 April 1990 at 8:33:51 EDT from Kennedy Space Center, FL · Duration: 5 days, 1 hour, 16 minutes, 6 seconds · Landed: 29 April 1990 at 6:49:57 A.M. PDT Edwards Air Force Base, CA · Mission Highlights: This mission was responsible for deploying the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), which the crew accomplished on 25 January. Because of the need to place the telescope above the atmospheric haze, STS-31 reached a record altitude of 380 miles (600 km). Following the deployment, the crew conducted research on orbiter radiation, the effects of weightlessness on electrical arcs, and protein crystal growth. The crew operated two IMAX cameras during the mission. STS-46 (Atlantis) · Crew: Commander Loren J. Shriver, Pilot Andrew M. Allen, Mission Specialist 1 Jeffrey A. Hoffman, Mission Specialist 2 Franklin R. Chang-Diaz, Mission Specialist 3 Claude Nicollier, Mission Specialist 4 Marsha S. Ivins, Payload Specialist 1 Franco Malerba · Launched: 31 July 1992 at 9:56:48 EDT from Kennedy Space Center, FL · Duration: 7 days, 23 hours, 15 minutes, 3 seconds · Landed: 8 August 1992 at 9:11:50 A.M. EDT Kennedy Space Center, FL · Mission Highlights: The two primary objectives of STS-46 were the deployment of the ESA European Retrievable Carrier (EURECA) and the NASA/Italian Space Agency Tethered Satellite System (TSS). EURECA deployment was delayed by one day but was eventually successful. Aboard EURECA were several scientific experiments that NASA expected to be retrieved in future mission STS-57. The TSS was also delayed one day, and a jammed tether caused the satellite to reach only 860 feet from the orbiter, as opposed to 12.5 miles. The crew freed the tether, but a second jam resulted in the decision to reel it in and stow it for examination once back on Earth. In addition to the EURECA and TSS, STS-46 conducted a host of scientific experiments and landed one day late in order to complete them. Notable among these were a study of the pituitary growth hormone and an examination of low-orbit atomic oxygen erosion.
