Mission STS-38 patch
Atlantis blasted off on its 7th flight (STS-38) and 7th mission dedicated to the Department of Defense, November 15, 1990 for a four-day trip into space. The crew consisted of Commander Richard Covey, Pilot Frank Culbertson, Mission Specialist Carl Meade, Mission Specialist Robert Springer, and Mission Specialist Charles Gemar.
Since this was a DoD mission, Atlantis' payload was classified. She landed November 20, her returned a day later than planned because of unacceptable wind conditions at Edwards AFB so she landed at Kennedy Space Center.
