154 was uneventful.

STS-51 Launch: 9/12/93; 7:45 a.m. EDT. Launch attempt 7/17 ends at T-minus 20 minutes due to a faulty MLP transistor controlling the
Discovery 57 shuttle's hold-down posts and other pyro devices. Launch attempt No. 2 on 7/24 fails at T-minus 19 seconds when the right-side
SRB's HPU failed to operate properly. Launch rescheduled for 8/4, but ultimately delayed to 8/12 to avoid the Persied meteor
shower. Launch attempt No. 3 on 8/12 failed at T-minus 3 seconds due to a faulty fuel flow sensor in SSME No. 2 that triggered an
RSLS abort. Launch reset for 9/10 and then delayed two days to 9/12 to make sure no faulty transistors were in place aboard the
ACTS/TOS payload or other STS systems. This concern was triggered by the August failures of Mars Observer and NOAA-13. Launch
on Sept. 12 on time.

Landing: 09/22/93, 3:56:07 a.m.; Runway 15, KSC (17). Landing orbit: 157. Rollout distance: ??. Rollout time: ??. Touchdown
speed: ??.Flight officially scheduled to last nine days, but officials said before launch it would be extended one day, fuel permitting,
to permit additional science. MMT, however, ruled out a mission extension after launch. Flight then extended one day anyway
because of cloudy weather.

STS-58 Launch: 10/18/93; 10:53 a.m. EST. Launch attempt on 10/14 delayed by weather, then by problems with an Air Force range
Columbia 58 computer that stopped the countdown at T-minus 31 seconds. A second attempt on 10/15 delayed by weather and, finally, by the
failure of S-band transponder No. 2 aboard the shuttle. Launch on 10/18 came 10 seconds late due to an aircraft in the danger area.

Landing: 11/01/93; 10:05:42 a.m. EST; Runway 22, EAFB (39). Landing orbit: 224. Rollout distance: ??. Rollout time: ??.
Touchdown speed: ??. Landing was on time and uneventful.

STS-61 Launch: 12/02/93; 4:27 a.m. EST. Launch attempt on 12/1 delayed by high winds and clouds in the KSC area. Second attempt on
Endeavour 59 12/2 is on time and uneventful.

Landing: 12/13/93; 12:25:33 a.m. EST; Runway 33, KSC (18). This was the second night landing at KSC and the seventh in shuttle
history. Landing orbit: 162. Landing was a bit long, but otherwise uneventful.

STS-60 Launch: 02/03/94; 7:10 a.m. EST. Launch on time.


Discovery 60
Landing: 02/11/94; 2:19:22 p.m. EST; Runway 15, KSC (19). Landing orbit: 131. Landing was delayed one orbit due to high winds
and clouds. Actual touchdown occurred in fairly heavy cloud cover.

STS-62 Launch: 03/04/94; 8:53 a.m. EST. Launch was delayed one day due to bad weather. The launch actually was called off the day
Columbia 61 before the planned 3/3 T-0 in an unusual departure from normal NASA operating procedure. As it turned out, the forecast was
accurate. Launch on March 4 was on time and uneventful.
Landing: 03/18/94; 8:09:41 a.m. EST; Runway 33, KSC (20). Landing orbit: 224. Landing was on time. After main gear
touchdown, Casper steered to the centerline using Columbia's rudder. The vehicle appeared to swerve sharply back and forth.
Landing otherwise was uneventful.

STS-59 Launch: 04/09/94; 7:05 a.m. EDT. Launch originally set for 4/8 but delayed to 4/9 on first day of countdown to inspect HPOT
Endeavour 62 preburner vanes after problems reported during a teardown at Rocketdyne planet. No problems were found and launch reset for 4/8.
Low clouds and high winds ultimately delayed launch 24 more hours. Launch on 4/9 was on time.

Landing: 04/20/04; 12:54:30 p.m. EDT, Runway 22, EAFB. Landing orbit:282. Landing originally set for 4/18; flight extended one
day for additional science. Two KSC landing tries on 4/19 were blocked by low clouds. Third try for KSC on 4/20 again blocked by
low clouds; Endeavour diverted to Edwards where landing was uneventful.

STS-65 Launch: 07/08/94; 12:43 p.m. EDT. Launch on time.


Columbia 63
Landing: 07/23/94; 6:38:01 a.m. EDT, Runway 33, KSC. Landing orbit: 236. Landing originally planned for 7/22, but clouds and
rain in the area forced a one-day waveoff. Landing was uneventful.

STS-64 Launch: 09/09/94; 6:22:55 p.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for 4:30 p.m., but the flight was delayed by heavy clouds over
Discovery 64 KSC. The countdown held at T-minus nine minutes and finally at T-minus five minutes when conditions appeared to be improving.
Shortly thereafter the count resumed and ascent was normal.

Landing: 09/20/94; 5:12:52 p.m. EDT, Runway 04, EAFB. Landing orbit 177. Landing originally set for 9/18; one day extension for
science. Landing on 9/19 delayed one day by bad weather that blocked two attempts at KSC. Two attempts at KSC on 9/20 also
failed; crew then landed at EAFB.

STS-68 Launch: 09/30/94; 7:16 a.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for 8/18, but the flight was delayed six weeks by an RSLS abort at
Endeavour 65 the T-minus 1.9-second mark. The abort was blamed on higher-than-permitted temperatures in the high pressure liquid oxygen
pump of SSME No. 3. The engine was removed and test fired at the Stennis Space Center on 9/2. Engineers concluded the abort
was caused by a combination of unrelated factors and not by a generic problem. In the meantime, NASA proceded with STS-64's
launch on 9/9. All three of Endeavour's engines were replaced by SSMEs taken from the shuttle Atlantis. Launch on 9/30 was on
time and uneventful.
Landing: 10/11/94; 1:02:09 p.m. EDT, Runway 22, EAFB. Landing orbit 183. Landing originally set for 10/10, but the flight was
extended one day for additional science. Landing at KSC on 10/11 was blocked by low clouds. Touchdown at EAFB was one orbit late
and uneventful.

STS-66 Atlantis Launch: 11/03/94; 11:59:43 a.m. EST. Launch was delayed three minutes and 43 seconds by TAL weather issues.
66
Landing: 11/14/94; 10:33:45 a.m. EST, Runway 22, EAFB. Landing orbit: 175. Landing originally planned for KSC, but Atlantis was
diverted to Edwards by high winds and clouds. Landing at EAFB was two orbits late but uneventful.

STS-63 Launch: 02/03/95; 12:22:04 a.m. EST. Launch originally scheduled for Feb. 2, but the flight was delayed one day to replace a faulty
Discovery 67 IMU. Launch Feb. 3 was on time.
Landing: 2/11/95; 6:50:19 a.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. Landing orbit: 130. Landing was on time and uneventful.

STS-67 Launch: 03/02/95; 1:38:13 a.m. EST. Launch delayed one minute and 13 seconds due to problems with the orbiter's cooling
Endeavour 68 systems. Ascent was uneventful.

Landing: 03/18/95; 4:47:00 p.m. EST, Runway 22, EAFB. Landing orbit 262. Landing originally planned for 3/17 at KSC, but the
crew was waved off due to stormy weather. A second attempt to land in Florida on 3/18 also was waved off and Endeavour landed
at EAFB. This flight, the longest in shuttle history to this point, spanned 6.9 million miles and 262 orbits.

STS-71 Atlantis Launch: 06/27/95; 3:32:19 p.m. EDT. 100th U.S. manned space flight. Launch originally scheduled for late May, but the flight was
69 delayed due to problems launching the Spektr research module to Mir. The first actual launch attempt on June 23 was called off prior
to the start of tanking by thunderstorms and heavy rain. A second launch attempt on June 24 was scrubbed at T-minus nine minutes
due to more thunderstorms. Launch was delayed to June 27 to reservice PRSD. Liftoff on June 27 was on time and uneventful.

Landing: 07/07/95; 10:54:36 a.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. Landing orbit 153. Landing on time and uneventful.

STS-70 Launch: 07/13/95; 9:41:55 a.m. EDT. Launch originally set for late June, then moved up to June 8 after STS-70 slipped from late
Discovery 70 May to late June (see above). Launch delayed from June 8 to July 13 due to more than 200 holes in the shuttle's external tank
drilled by a pair of nesting woodpeckers. STS-71 was launched in the interim. On July 13, STS-70's liftoff was delayed 55 seconds
due to contingency procedures required to verify ET destruct system receiver was working properly. Ascent was uneventful.

Landing: 07/22/95; 08:02:00 a.m . EDT, Runway 33, KSC. Landing orbit 143. Landing originally scheduled for 7/21; delayed one
day by heavy ground fog at KSC. Landing on 7/22 delayed one orbit due to the threat of fog (conditions actually were "go"). Landing
on orbit 143 was uneventful.

CBS News STS Launch Landing History Current through STS-121

STS-69 Launch: 09/07/95; 11:09 a.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for late July, delayed to Aug. 5 to provide more time for
Endeavour 71 crew/ground controller training. Later in July, flight was delayed indefinitely due to suspect O-ring nozzle joints. In early August,
Hurricane Erin forced shuttle rollback to VAB. After return to pad 39A, SRB nozzle joint repairs were made. Launch attempt on Aug.
31 called off prior to fueling because of faulty Fuel Cell No. 2. Fuel cell replaced. Launch on Sept. 7 was on time and uneventful.

Landing: 09/18/95; 7:37:56 a.m. EDT, Runway 33, KSC. Landing on orbit 171. Landing was on time and uneventful.

STS-73 Launch: 10/20/95; 9:53 a.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for Sept. 28, but delayed to Oct. 5 to replace leacking main fuel
Columbia 72 valve on SSME No. 1; then delayed to Oct. 6 by Hurricane Opal; Oct. 6 passed up due to hydraulic system problems; Oct. 7 launch
try scrubbed due to faulty master events controller; Oct. 14 launch date missed due to unplanned main engine weld inspections;
Oct. 15 missed due to low clouds. Launch rescheduled for Oct. 20, after two attempts to launch Atlas-2/UHF rocket. Launch on Oct.
20 on time and uneventful.
Landing: 11/05/95; 6:45:22 a.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing on orbit 256. Landing was on time and uneventful.

STS-74 Atlantis Launch: 11/12/95; 7:30:42 a.m. EST. Launch originally scheduled for Nov. 11, but the flight was delayed 24 hours by high winds,
73 low clouds and rain at all three TAL runways in Spain and Africa. Ascent on Nov. 12 was on time and uneventful.

Landing: 11/20/95; 12:01:56 p.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing on orbit 128. Landing was on time and uneventful.

STS-72 Launch: 1/11/96; 4:41 a.m. EST. Launch originally scheduled for 4:18 a.m., but liftoff was delayed 23 minutes due to a
Endeavour 74 communications problem in Houston. Ascent was uneventful.

Landing: 01/20/96; 2:41:40 a.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. Landing on orbit 142. Landing was on time and uneventful.

STS-75 Launch: 02/22/96; 3:18 p.m. EST. Launched on time.


Columbia 75
Landing: 03/09/96; 8:58:21 a.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing originally scheduled for 3/7, but flight extended one day when
TSS-1R deploy slipped 24 hours, from 2/24 to 2/25. TSS-1R was lost on 2/25; mission reverted to original duration. Flight then
extended one day for additional science. Flight extended one more day, to 3/9, due to bad weather at KSC. First 3/9 opportunity
waved off. Landed on second deorbit rev.

STS-76 Atlantis Launch: 03/22/96; 3:13:04 a.m. EST. Launch originally scheduled for 3/21, but NASA's Mission Management Team called off the
76 attempt the day before based on a dismal forecast. Launch on 3/22 was on time. The only anomaly was a hydraulic leak in system
No. 3 that had no impact on the mission.
Landing: 03/31/96; 8:28:57 a.m. EST, Runway 22, EAFB. During the mission, flight director Jeff Bantle shortened Atlantis' flight by
one day to take advantage of expected good weather at KSC. This decision was made in part because of a hydraulic leak during
launch. As it turned out, the weather precluded a March 30 landing at KSC and the flight was extended one day to March 31. Atlantis
was diverted to Edwards because of uncertain weather at KSC.

STS-79 Atlantis Launch: 09/16/96; 4:54:49 a.m. EDT. Launch on time. NOTE: Launch originally scheduled for July 31, but the flight was delayed
79 because of 1) Hurricane Bertha, which required a rollback from the pad; 2) work to replace both SRBs due to concern about damage
found in Columbia's boosters the preceding June; 3) Hurricane Fran, which required a second rollback.

Landing: 09/26/96; 8:13:15 a.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. Landing on orbit 160. Landing was on time and uneventful despite the
failure earlier in the mission of APU-2.

STS-80 Launch: 11/19/96, 2:55:47 p.m. EST. Launch delayed two minutes and 47 seconds at the T-minus 31-second mark due to hydrogen
Columbia 80 in aft compartment. Launch originally scheduled for Oct. 30, but the flight was repeatedly delayed due to concern about booster
nozzle erosion discovered after STS-79. On Nov. 13, the flight was delayed from Nov. 15 to 19 because of a bad forecast.

Landing: 12/07/96, 6:49:05 a.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing on orbit 279. Mission was extended two days due to bad weather
at the Kennedy Space Center. Touchdown on 12/7 was on time and uneventful. Record flight duration.

the landing site.

STS-82 Launch: 02/11/97, 3:55:17 a.m. EST. Launch on time.


Discovery 82
Landing: 02/21/97, 03:32:26 a.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. Mission extended one day due to clouds over the landing site.

STS-83 Launch: 04/04/97, 02:20:31 p.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for April 3, but on April 1, mission managers delayed the flight
Columbia 83 one day to insulate water coolant lines servicing Columbia's Spacelab research module. Launch on April 4 was delayed 20 minutes by
work to close the shuttle's hatch and because of last-minute concern about oxygen concentrations in the fuselage and engine
compartment.
Landing: 04/08/97, 01:30:45 p.m. EDT, Runway 33, KSC. Planned 16-day mission cut short because of concern about possible fuel

Landing: 01/31/98, 05:35:09 p.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-90 Launch: 04/17/98, 2:19:00 p.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for 4/16 but flight delayed one day to replace a network signal
Columbia 90 processor (one of two) that formats data to and from the orbiter. The suspect unit would not switch to high data rate mode.
Replacement was ordered before fueling began so launch was delayed just one day. Liftoff on April 17 was on time and uneventful.

Landing: 05/03/98, 12:08:59 p.m. EDT, Runway 33, KSC. On time. APU-3 was not activated until Mach 2.5 due to failure of water
spray boiler cooling system. Entry was uneventful and all three APUs ran normally.

Discovery 91
Landing: 06/12/98, 02:00:00 p.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-95 Launch: 10/29/98, 02:19:34 p.m. EST. Launch delayed 19 minutes and 34 seconds by multiple private aircraft in the launch danger
Discovery 92 zone, presumably to view John Glenn's launch.
Landing: 11/07/98, 12:03:31 p.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. On time.

Page 239
CBS News STS Launch Landing History Current through STS-121

STS-88 Launch: 12/04/98, 03:35:34 a.m. EST. Launch originally set for 12/03, but the flight was delayed 24 hours when the launch team
Endeavour 93 failed to resolve questions about an APU pressure spike at startup before LOX drainback time expired. Later determined to be result
of normal startup transient. Launch on 12/04 was on time and uneventful.
Landing: 12/15/98, 10:53:29 p.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-96 Launch: 05/27/99, 06:49:42 a.m. EDT. Launch on time.


Discovery 94
Landing: 06/06/99, 02:02:43 a.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-93 Launch: 07/23/99, 12:31 a.m. EDT. Launch originally scheduled for 07/20/99, but countdown stopped at T-minus seven seconds
Columbia 95 when high levels of hydrogen were detected in Columbia's aft compartment; later determined to be a false reading and launch was
rescheduled for 07/22/99. Launch scrubbed at T-minus five minutes due to lightning in launch area. Launch on 07/23/99 was on
time.
Landing: 07/23/99, 11:20:35 a.m. EDT, Runway 33, KSC. On time.

STS-103 Launch: 12/19/99, 7:50 p.m. EST. Launch originally scheduled for Oct. 14, but the flight was repeatedly delayed to fix extensive
Discovery 96 shuttle wiring problems discovered in the wake of a short circuit during the STS-93 launch July 23. STS-103 launch retargeted for
Oct. 28, then Nov. 19, Dec. 2, Dec. 6, Dec. 9, Dec. 11. Along with frayed wiring, engineers also had to A) replace a main engine due
to a drill bit lodged inside; B) repair electrical wiring between the external tank and boosters; C) replace a dented hydrogen
recirculation line in the engine compartment. The countdown finally began for a launch attempt Dec. 16 but before fueling began,
launch was delayed one day to review the quality of MPS propellant line welds. Launch Dec. 17 was called off due to low clouds and
rain. NASA did not bother to tank on Dec. 18 because of coninuing bad weather. Discovery finally took off on Dec. 19, the final day
possible in 1999 because of a Y2K landing deadline. Discovery's nine target launch dates was a shuttle record. Liftoff Dec. 19 was on
time.

Landing: 12/27/99, 7:00:47 p.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing delayed one orbit by high crosswinds. Landing on orbit 120 was
uneventful.

STS-99 Launch: 02/11/00, 12:43:40 p.m. EST. Launch originally scheduled for Sept. 16, but the flight was repeatedly delayed because of
Endeavour 97 wiring problems (see previous entry). Endeavour was given a clean bill of health in early January and last-minute concern about
potential tile problems was resolved by the middle of the month. But low clouds and rain forced NASA to scrub a Jan. 31 launch
attempt. And even if the weather had been acceptable, the flight would have been delayed because of concern about the health of a
master events controller, or MEC, aboard Endeavour. One of the two aboard Endeavour - MEC-2 - failed a health check at T-minus
29 minutes on Jan. 31. After troubleshooting the problem overnight, NASA managers decided to replace the unit, delaying launch to
at least Feb. 9. Due to conflicts with other rocket launches, the flight ultimately slipped to Feb. 11. Liftoff was delayed 13 minutes
and 40 seconds by a trio of minor technical problems.

Landing: 02/22/00, 06:22:23 p.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing delayed one orbit due to high crosswinds.

CBS News STS Launch Landing History Current through STS-121

STS-101 Launch: 05/99/00, 06:11:09 a.m. EDT. NASA decided in February to break mission STS-106 - ISS 2A.1 - into two missions in order
Atlantis 98 to repair failing batteries aboard the Russian Zarya module as soon as possible. After numerous delays because of technical
problems, launch attempts on April 24 and 25 were scrubbed due to high winds at the Kennedy Space Center's emergency runway.
An attempt on April 26 was scrubbed because of bad weather at NASA's overseas TAL landing sites. This was the first campaign in
shuttle history to attempt three back-to-back launch attempts. Because of conflicts with other rockets on the Air Force Eastern
Range, Atlantis ultimately was rescheduled for a launch attempt on May 18. Because of problems launching a new Lockheed Martin
Atlas 3R rocket, the shuttle launch slipped to May 19. Launch on May 19 was on time after an uneventful countdown.

Landing: 05/29/00, 02:20:17 a.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-106 Launch: 09/08/00, 08:45:47 a.m. EDT. On time.


Atlantis 99
Landing: 09/20/00, 03:56:48 a.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. Mission extended one day to give astronauts more time to outfit and
activate the international space station. Landing on 09/20 was on time.

STS-92 Launch: 10/11/00, 7:17:00 p.m. EDT. Launch originally set for Oct. 5, but the flight was delayed, first by 24 hours to resolve
Discovery 100 questions about bolts in the external tank aft attachment system and then to Monday, Oct. 9, because of work to replace a suspect
POGO valve in the engine compartment. High winds Oct. 9 prevented engineers from completing fueling preparations and launch
was delayed another 24 hours. A launch attempt on Oct. 10 was delayed yet another 24 hours after engineers noticed a metal pip
pin lodged on the external tank oxygen feed line system. The final launch attempt on Oct. 11 was on time.

Landing: 10/24/00, 4:59:41 p.m. EDT, Runway 22, Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. Landing originally planned for Oct. 22, but the
flight was extended one day because of high crosswinds at the Kennedy Space Center. More high winds in Florida and bad weather
in California forced a second extension. The weather remained unacceptable in Florida on Oct. 24, but conditions were ideal at
Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., where the shuttle landed on its first California landing opportunity.

STS-97 Launch: 11/30/00, 10:06:01 p.m. EST. On time.


Endeavour
101
Landing: 12/11/00, 6:03:25 p.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-98 Atlantis Launch: 02/07/01, 6:13:02 p.m. EST. Launch originally targeted for Jan. 18, but rollout to the pad in December was delayed until
102 after Christmas to inspect suspect wiring in the shuttle's booster separation system. Atlantis was hauled to the pad on Jan. 3 for a
launch attempt on Jan. 19. But on Jan. 15, a rollback to the Vehicle Assembly Building for additional booster cable inspections. On
Jan. 25, launch was retargeted for Feb. 7. Launch on Feb. 7 was on time.

Landing: 02/20/01, 3:33:05 p.m. EST, Runway 22, Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. Landing originally planned for Feb. 18 at the
Kennedy Space Center, but landing was delayed to Feb. 19 by high crosswinds at the Florida spaceport. More high winds on Feb. 19
forced an additional on-day delay, to Feb. 20. Atlantis then was diverted to Edwards because of a low deck of clouds that violated
NASA's safety limits. Touchdown at Edwards was uneventful.

STS-102 Launch: 03/08/01, 06:42:09 a.m. EST. On time.


Discovery 103

Landing: 03/21/01, 02:31:41 a.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. Landing delayed one orbit because of expected high crosswinds, possible
showers. Touchdown was uneventful.

STS-100 Launch: 04/19/01, 02:40:42 p.m. EDT. On time.


Endeavour
104
Landing: 05/01/01, 12:10:42 p.m. EDT, Runway 22, Edwards Air Force Base. Mission extended one day to permit additional
computer troubleshooting on space station Alpha. Two back-to-back landing opportunities at the Kennedy Space Center were
blocked by high winds, low clouds and rain. The forecast was the same the next day, so Endeavour was diverted to Edwards.
Landing there was uneventful.

STS-104 Launch: 07/12/01, 05:03:59 a.m. EDT. On time.


Atlantis 105
Landing: 07/24/01, 11:38:55 p.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. Landing delayed one day due to approaching rain showers. Landing on
July 24 was on time and uneventful.

STS-105 Launch: 08/10/01, 05:10:14 p.m. EDT. Launch originally set for Aug. 9, but the flight was delayed 24 hours by thunderstorms in the
Discovery 106 Kennedy Space Center area. Launch on Aug. 10 was moved up five minutes, from the preferred time to the opening of the planar
window, because of the threat of approaching clouds. Liftoff was uneventful.

Landing: 08/22/01, 2:22:58 p.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. Landing was delayed one orbit because of rain clouds near the southern
end of the runway. The clouds dissipated and entry one orbit later was uneventful.

STS-108 Launch: 12/05/01, 5:19:28 p.m. EST. Launch originally set for 11/29, but the flight was put on hold after Russian flight controllers
Endeavour reported problems hard docking a Progress supply ship that arrived at the space station earlier in the week. Launch initially was
107 delayed one day, to Nov. 30, and later to Tuesday, Dec. 4, one day after a spacewalk by the station crew to clear a rubber O-ring
seal lodged in the Progress docking interface. The spacewalk was successful. But bad weather on Dec. 4 forced another 24-hour
delay. Launch on Dec. 5 as on time and uneventful.
Landing: 12/17/01, 12:55:10 p.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. On time.

STS-109 Launch: 03/01/02, 6:22:02 a.m. EST. Launch originally targeted for Feb. 28, but the flight was delayed one day because of
Columbia 108 expected low temperatures. Launch on March 1 was on time and uneventful.
Landing: 03/12/02, 4:31:52 a.m., Runway 33, KSC. On time.

STS-110 Launch: 04/08/02, 04:44:19 p.m. EDT. Launch originally set for April 4, but the flight was delayed during fueling when a hydrogen
Atlantis 109 vent line on MLP-3 ruptured. Launch on April 8 was delayed at the T-minus 5:30 point because of RF glitches in a backup telemetry
channel on the ground. The computer was rebooted in time for a launch just 11 seconds before the window closed.

Landing: 04/19/02, 12:26:57 p.m., Runway 33, KSC. On time.

STS-111 Launch: 06/05/02, 05:22:49 p.m. EDT. Launch originally was scheduled for May 30, but the flight was scrubbed and recycled for
Endeavour May 31 due to approaching storms. Before fueling began on Friday ,May 31, the flight was delayed to June 3 because of a dismal
110 forecast calling for afternoon and evening thunderstorms through the weekend. Then on June 1, launch was delayed an additional
day, to June 4, to give engineers time to replace a suspect nitrogen valve in the ship's left-side OMS pod. The R&R eventually forced
NASA to delay the flight yet another day, to June 5, because of problems getting test equipment in place. Launch on June 5 was on
time and uneventful.

CBS News STS Launch Landing History Current through STS-121

Landing: 06/19/02, 1:57:41 p.m. EDT, Runway 22, EAFB. Landing originallly planned for June 17, but two KSC opportunities were
waved off due to showers and thunderstorms near the runway. Two more KSC opportunities were waved off June 18 because of
similar weather.

STS-112 Launch: 10/07/02, 3:45:51 p.m. EDT. Launch originally set for Aug. 22, but the shuttle fleet was grounded in July because of SSME
Atlantis 111 flow liner cracks. STS-112 ultimately slipped to Sept. 28 to accommodate repairs. Launch then slipped to Oct. 2 because of problems
with NASA's crawler-transporters. Then, the approach of Hurricane Lili toward the Johnson Space Center prompted a delay to Oct. 7.
Launch on Oct. 7 was on time. During ascent, foam from the bipod ramp hit a booster IEA.

Landing: 10/18/02, 11:43:40 a.m. EDT, Runway 33, KSC. On time.

STS-113 Launch: 11/23/02, 7:49:47 p.m. EST. Launch originally planned for mid October, but the shuttle fleet was grounded in July because
Endeavour of cracks found in hydrogen fuel lines. Launch slipped from Oct. 6 to Nov. 2 and then to Nov. 11 to accommodate the delayed launch
112 of a Soyuz taxi craft to the space station. The shuttle was grounded again on Nov. 10 because of a leak in an oxygen flex hose below
the forward payload bay liner. The leak was quickly fixed but in doing so, an access platform bumped Eneavour's robot arm.
Engineers eventually declared the arm healthy enough for flight. A launch attempt Nov. 22 was scrubbed due to rain at both Spanish
TAL sites. Launch on Nov. 23 was on time and uneventful.

Landing: 12/07/02, 2:37:12 p.m. EST, Runway 33, KSC. Landing originally scheduled for 12/4, but predicted clouds and rain
showers blocked two attempts in a row. More bad weather blocked landing attempts 12/5 and 12/6. Landing on 12/7 was on time
and uneventful.

STS-107 Launch: 01/16/03, 10:39 a.m. EST. Launch on time. 81.7 seconds after liftoff, a 1.67-pound piece of foam insulation from the ET
Columbia 113 left bipod ramp broke free and impacted the left wing leading edge around RCC panel No. 8. The foam was seen in video, but the
impact site was out of view. Mission managers concluded the shuttle could safely return to Earth as is.

Landing: Scheduled for 2/1/03, 9:16 a.m. Sixteen minutes before touchdown, Columbia broke apart at an altitude of 37 miles and a
velocity of Mach 12 due to plasma intrusion through a leading edge breach into the interior of the left wing. The breach was caused
by the impact of foam debris during ascent 16 days earlier. The left wing melted from the inside out, resulting in loss of control and
destruction of the vehicle. All seven astronauts were killed and the shuttle fleet was grounded.

STS-114 Launch: 07/26/05, 10:39:00 a.m. EDT. Launch originally targeted for July 13, but the countdown was called off two-and-a-half
Discovery hours before liftoff because of suspect data from one of four hydrogen engine cutoff sensors in the external tank. The cause was
114 never conclusively determined, but all relevant hardware was replaced/inspected. Launch on 7/26 was on time and ECO sensors
workeed normally. During ascent, however, large pieces of foam insulation fell away from the external tank hydrogen PAL ramp,
intertank flange, bipod area and acreage foam.
Landing: 08/09/05, 8:11:22 a.m. EDT. Landing originally was planned for 8/8 at the Kennedy Space Center, but cloudy weather
blocked two deorbit revs and the flight was extended one day. After waving off the first rev on 8/9, again because of clouds, flight
director LeRoy Cain diverted the crew to Edwards. Landing was uneventful.

STS-121 Launch: 07/04/06, 07:37:55 a.m. EDT. Launch originally targeted for July 1, but launch was scrubbed during the T-9 hold due to
Discovery rain showers and anvil clouds. A launch attempt July 2 was called off shortly after crew boarding because of showers and cloud
115 cover. NASA stood down July 3 to top of PRSD. After resolution of questions about lost foam insulation on an ET LO2 feedline
support bracket, Discovery was cleared for launch July 4. Ascent was on time and uneventful.

CBS News STS Launch Landing History Current through STS-121

Landing: 7/19/06, 9:14:43 a.m. EDT, Runway 15, KSC. On time. Starboard air data probe did not initially deploy, but ultimately did.
Concern about a small N2 or hydrazine leak in APU 1 caused no problems and no hydrazine was detected on the runway.

STS-115 Launch: 9/9/06, 11:14:55 a.m., LC-39B, KSC. Launch originally targeted for Aug. 27, but a launch pad lightning strike Aug. 25
Atlantis 116 forced a one-day delay. Launch eventually slipped another day before tropical storm/hurricane Ernesto forced NASA to order a
rollback to the VAB on Aug. 29. Halfway to the VAB, the forecast improved enough for an unprecedented decision to return to pad
39B to ride out the tropical storm. Launch was reset for Sept. 6 but the night before, fuel cell No. 1 experienced an internal short
preventing phase A power from reaching a Freon coolant pump motor inside the fuel cell. Launch was put on hold pending an
analysis. Launch then reset for Sept. 8, but LH2 ECO-3 failed wet shortly after fueling began. NASA stood down 24 hours in
accordance with a revised LCC in a bid to launch with three of four operational ECO sensors. On 9/9, all four ECO sensors worked
normally and the shuttle took off on time. No major foam shedding was observed prior to a few small pieces four minutes and five
minutes after launch, well beyond the zone of concern.

Landing: 09/21/06, 6:21:30 a.m. EDT. Landing originally expected on 9/20, but entry was delayed 24 hours the day before when
engineers spotted co-orbital debris that apparently came from the shuttle. A heat shield inspection was carried out 9/20 and no
problems were found. Landing on 9/21 was on time and uneventful.

STS-116 Launch: 12/9/06, 8:47:35 p.m. EST, LC-39B, KSC. Launch originally set for 12/7/06, but the flight was delayed, at the T-minus 5-
Discovery 117 minute mark, by low cloud cover. Based on the forecast, the MTT opted to delay launch 48 hours to top off PRSD. Despite an initial
70 percent 'no go' forecast, launch on 12/9 was on-time and ascent was uneventful.
Landing: 12/22/06, 5:31:24 p.m. EST, Runway 15, KSC. STS-116 originally scheduled for landing 9/21, but the flight was extended
one day to permit a fourth EVA to retract the P6-4B solar array wing and a decision by the MMT to retain a post-undocking TPS
inspection. That pushed landing to 9/22 and because of PRSD constraints, only one backup day was available. As a result, all three
shuttle landing sites were activated for the 9/22 attempt. Bad weather at KSC and high crosswinds at Edwards raised concern about
a possible White Sands landing, NASA's first since 1982. An initial attempt on rev. 202 to KSC was waved off due to concern about
rains and low clouds. On the next rev, about six minutes before TIG, entry flight director Norm Knight cleared Discovery for KSC.
Landing was uneventful.
