962.0. "STS-80 (Columbia) WSF and ORFEUS" by ERMTRD::CLIFFE (I'll warp my own space-time ...) Thu Feb 29 1996 12:21

STS-80

Crew:

   Kenneth D. Cockrell (3), Mission Commander 
   Kent V. Rominger (2), Pilot 
   Tamara E. Jernigan (4), Mission Specialist 
   Thomas David Jones (3), Mission Specialist 
   F. Story Musgrave (6), Mission Specialist 

Payload:
   STS-80 will mark the third flight of the WSF that flew on STS-60 and STS-69
   and the second flight of the Orbiting Retrievable Far and Extreme
   Ultraviolet Spectrometer (ORFEUS) satellite. Both satellites will be
   deployed and retrieved during the mission. 

   The saucer-shaped WSF is designed to fly free of the Shuttle, creating a
   super vacuum in its wake in which to grow thin film wafers for use in 
   semiconductors. The ORFEUS instruments are mounted on the reusable Shuttle
   Pallet Satellite (SPAS) and will study the origin and makeup of stars. 

   Astronauts Jernigan and Jones will conduct a spacewalk during the mission
   to continue the flight test and evaluation of hardware for future
   spacewalks or extravehicular activity. 

Launch:

   Launch November 7, 1996 (ESTIMATED).
