    STS-88
    During the 12-day mission to begin assembly of the International Space Station (ISS), all objectives were met. On Dec. 5, the 12.8-ton Unity connecting module was first connected to Endeavour's docking system; on Dec. 6, using the 50-foot-long robot arm, the Zarya control module was captured from orbit and mated to Unity; and astronauts Ross and Newman conducted three spacewalks to attach cables, connectors and hand rails. The two modules were powered up after the astronauts' entry.

    They had to hook up gas tanks to the space shuttle and tryed to make air flow for futher missions.

    This was one of the fail misson of NASA in 2003. All the people on board the space shuttle died on the way back down to Earth. In the physical sciences, three studies inside a large, rugged chamber examined the physics of combustion, soot production and fire quenching processes in microgravity. These experiments provided new insights into combustion and fire suppression that cannot be gained on Earth
  • STS-134

    This space mission caried spare parts to the Dextre robot. this was the first space suttle flight in Fincke.

    Once Atlantis caught up to the space station, Ferguson executed a backflip about 600 feet below to enable station crew members to photograph the shuttle’s heat shield. The photos were evaluated by experts on the ground to look for any damage and none was found.
