Launched: 26 July 1977 from Edwards AFB Duration: 59 minutes, 53 seconds FIRST FREE-FLIGHT Launched: 12 August 1977 at 08:48 A.M. PST from Edwards AFB Duration: 5 minutes, 21 seconds THIRD FREE-FLIGHT Launched: 23 September 1977 from Edwards AFB Duration: 5 minutes, 34 seconds FIFTH FREE-FLIGHT Launched: 26 October 1977 from Edwards AFB Duration: 2 minutes, 01 seconds Mission Highlights: To aerodynamically clear the Space Shuttle for space flight. (Columbia) Crew: Commander Jack R. Lousma, Pilot C. Gordon Fullerton Backup crew: Commander Thomas K. Mattingly, Pilot Henry W. Hartsfield Launched: 22 March 1982 at 11:00:00 A.M. EST from Cape Canaveral Duration: 8 days, 0 hours, 4 minutes, 46 seconds Landed: 30 March 1982 at 09:04:46 A.M. MST, White Sands, New Mexico Mission Highlights: Demonstrate safe re-launch and safe return of orbiter and crew. Verify the performance of entire shuttle vehicle: orbiter, external tank, and solid rocket boosters. Continue testing of RMS arm and carry out extensive thermal testing of shuttle by exposing its tail, nose and top to the sun for varying periods of time. All objectives were achieved and the mission was extended one extra day.

STS 51-F (Challenger) · Crew: Commander C. Gordon Fullerton, Pilot Roy D. Bridges, Jr., Mission Specialist 1 F. Story Musgrave, Mission Specialist 2 Anthony W. England, Mission Specialist 3 Karl G.
