Mission patch


Space Shuttle Columbia (STS-94), launched July 1, 1997, was the reflight of STS-83 from April, which was cut short due to a problem with Fuel Cell #2.  Its crew consisted of Commander James Halsell, Pilot Susan Kilrain Still, Janice Voss, Michael Gernhardt, Donald Thomas, Roger Crouch, and Greg Linteris.  It was the only time in history two missions with more than one crewmember had the exact same crew.

This time, the crew managed to complete all their objectives for the mission.  They returned to Earth
