The Space Shuttle orbiter Columbia glides in for a touchdown on Runway
33 at KSCs Shuttle Landing Facility at approximately 6:46 a.m. EDT
with Mission Commander James D. Halsell Jr. and Pilot Susan L. Still
at the controls to complete the STS-94 mission. Also on board are
Mission Specialist Donald A. Thomas, Mission Specialist Michael
L. Gernhardt, Payload Commander Janice Voss, and Payload Specialists
Roger K.Crouch and Gregory T. Linteris. During the Microgravity
Science Laboratory-1 (MSL-1) mission, the Spacelab module was used to
test some of the hardware, facilities and procedures that are planned
for use on the International Space Station while the flight crew
conducted combustion, protein crystal growth and materials processing
experiments. This mission was a reflight of the STS-83 mission that
lifted off from KSC in April of this year. That space flight was cut
short due to indications of a faulty fuel cell.
