Space Shuttle Columbia (STS-73) successfully launched October 20, 1995 after six previous aborted launches. It ties with STS-61-C for the most number of scrubs. On Day 6 of the mission, the crew threw out the ceremonial first pitch for Game 5 of the World Series. Mission Specialist 2 Michael Lopez-Alegria is the first Spanish-born astronaut.
Some of the crew appeared on the "Fear of Flying" episode of Home Improvement, February 3, 1996.
Oh, and UFOlogists claim Catherine Coleman reported seeing a UFO. Another first for NASA!
