Landed: 24 June 1985 at 6:11:52 A.M. PDT, Edwards AFB, California Mission Highlights: Primary payload consisted of three communications satellites deployed using Payload Assist Module-D (PAM-D) motors: the MORE LOS-A for Mexico; the ARABSAT-A for the Arab Satellite Communications Organization; and TELESTAR-3D for AT&T. Also onboard were the deployable/retrievable Shuttle Pointed Autonomous Research Tool for Astronomy (SPARTAN-1); six "Get Away Special" canisters; the Strategic Defense Initiative sponsored High Precision Tracking Experiment (HPTE); the Automated Directional Solidification Furnace (ADSF); and two French biomedical experiments.

STS 61-A (Challenger) · Crew: Commander Henry W. Hartsfield, Jr., Pilot Steven R. Nagel, Mission Specialist 1 James F. Buchli, Mission Specialist 2 Guion S. Bluford, Jr., Mission Specialist 3 Bonnie J. Dunbar, Payload Specialist 1 Reinhard Furrer, Payload Specialist 2 Ernst Messerschmid, Payload Specialist 3 Wubbo J. Ockels · Launched: 30 October 1985 at 12:00:00 noon EST from Kennedy Space Center, FL · Duration: 7 days, 0 hours, 44 minutes, 51 seconds · Landed: 6 November 1985 at 9:44:51 A.M. PST, Edwards AFB, California · Mission Highlights: The Dedicated German Spacelab (D-1) made up the primary cargo on this mission. Encompassing 75 different experiments studying materials science, life science, and new technology in a microgravity environment, the scientific operations for the mission were controlled from German Space Operations Center at Oberpfaffenhofen, West Germany. The other objective was the Global Low Orbiting Message Relay (GLOMR) satellite deployed using a "Get Away Special." STS-37 (Atlantis) · Crew: Commander Steven R. Nagel, Pilot Kenneth D. Cameron, Mission Specialist 1 Jerry L. Ross, Mission Specialist 2 Jay Apt, Mission Specialist 3 Linda M. Godwin · Launched: 5 April 1991 at 9:22:44 A.M. EST from Kennedy Space Center, FL · Duration: 5 days, 23 hours, 32 minutes, 44 seconds · Landed: 11 April 1991 at 6:55:29 A.M. PDT, Edwards AFB, California · Mission Highlights: Primary payload was the Gamma Ray Observatory (GRO) containing the Burst and Transient Source Experiment (BATSA), Imaging Compton Telescope (COMPTEL), Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET), and the Oriented Scintillation Spectrometer Experiment (OSSEE) science instruments. A high-gain antenna failed to deploy on the GRO, necessitating an unscheduled space walk. Secondary payloads included: the Ascent Particle Monitor (APM); Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment II (SAREX II); Protein Crystal Growth (PCG) experiment; the Bioserve/instrumentation Technology Associates Materials Dispersion Apparatus (BIMDA); Radiation Monitoring Equipment III (RME III); an Air Force Maui Optical Site (AMOS) experiment; and Crew and Equipment Translation Aids (CETA) which required a six-hour space walk.

STS-55 (Columbia) · Crew: Commander Steven R. Nagel, Pilot Terence T. Hendricks, Mission Specialist 1 Jerry L. Ross, Mission Specialist 2 Charles J. Precourt, Mission Specialist 3 Dr. Bernard A. Harris Jr. Payload Specialist 1 Dr. Ulrich Walter, Payload Specialist 2 Hans Schlegel · Launched: 26 April 1993 at 10:50 A.M. EDT from Kennedy Space Center, FL · Duration: 9 days, 23 hours, 39 minutes, 59 seconds · Landed: 6 May 1993 at 10:30 A.M. EDT Edwards AFB, California · Mission Highlights: Launch scrubbed T-3 seconds on 22 March. Mission delayed for months. The second reusable German Spacelab (D-2) made up the primary payload. Eleven nations sponsored eighty-eight experiments in the fields of fluid physics, materials sciences, life sciences, biological sciences, technology, Earth observations, atmospheric physics, and astronomy. The mission also conducted the first telerobotic capture of a free floating object by flight controllers in Germany, and the first intravenous saline solution injections to study fluid replacement in the body. Two amateur radio experiments, the SAREX II from the United States and the SAFEX from Germany, rounded out the orbiter's manifest. AWAR · · · · · · · · · · · · · ·
