STS-83 Payload Commander Janice Voss smiles as she is assisted into her launch/entry suit in the Operations and checkout (O&C) Building. She has flown on STS-63 and STS-57. Voss holds a doctorate degree in aeronautics/astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and has earned two NASA Space Flight Medals. As Payload Commander and a member of the Blue team, Voss will have overall responsibility for the operation of all of the MSL-1 experiments. During the experimentation phase of the mission, she will be working primarily with three combustion experiments. She and six fellow crew members will shortly depart the O&C and head for Launch Pad 39A, where the Space Shuttle Columbia will lift off during a launch window that opens at 2:00 p.m. EST, April 4 KSC-97pc567

STS-91 Mission Specialist Janet Lynn Kavandi gives a smile and a thumbs-up as two technicians help her with her flight suit in the Operations and Checkout (O&C) Building. The final fitting takes place prior to the crew walkout and transport to Launch Pad 39A. She is on her first Shuttle flight. Kavandi was selected as an astronaut candidate in 1994. She holds a doctorate in analytical chemistry and has received two patents. On this mission, she will be responsible for the SPACEHAB module aboard Discovery which will be used to transport supplies to Mir and bring back U.S. experiment hardware that has been in operation aboard the space station. She will also assist Chang-Diaz with AMS operations. STS-91 is scheduled to be launched on June 2 with a launch window opening around 6:10 p.m. EDT. The mission will feature the ninth and final Shuttle docking with the Russian space station Mir, the first Mir docking for Discovery, the first on-orbit test of the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS), and the first flight of the new Space Shuttle super lightweight external tank. Astronaut Andrew S. W. Thomas will return to Earth as a STS-91 crew member after living more than four months aboard Mir KSC-98pc676

The Space Shuttle program was the United States government's manned launch vehicle program from 1981 to 2011, administered by NASA and officially beginning in 1972. The Space Shuttle system—composed of an orbiter launched with two reusable solid rocket boosters and a disposable external fuel tank— carried up to eight astronauts and up to 50,000 lb (23,000 kg) of payload into low Earth orbit (LEO). When its mission was complete, the orbiter would re-enter the Earth's atmosphere and lands as a glider. Although the concept had been explored since the late 1960s, the program formally commenced in 1972 and was the focus of NASA's manned operations after the final Apollo and Skylab flights in the mid-1970s. It started with the launch of the first shuttle Columbia on April 12, 1981, on STS-1. and finished with its last mission, STS-135 flown by Atlantis, in July 2011.
