- Description
A presentation of the 18-day NASA Columbia mission STS-80. Launched in 1996, this project deployed the Orfeus Spas astronomical spectrograph observation payload and Wakeshield semiconductor experiment. Astronauts involved were Tammy Jernigan, Tom Jones, Story Musgrave, Kent Rominger and Ken Cockrell. The presentation is facilitated by the use of slides and a video, which detail the mission stages and make use of some in-flight images.
