List of Space Shuttle crews
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of persons who served aboard Space Shuttle crews, arranged in chronological order by Space Shuttle missions.
Abbreviations:
- PC = Payload Commander
- MSE = USAF Manned Spaceflight Engineer
- Mir = Launched to be part of the crew of the Mir Space Station
- ISS = Launched to be part of the crew of the International Space Station.
Names of astronauts returning from the Mir or ISS on the Space Shuttle are shown in italics. They did not have specific crew roles, but are listed in the Payload Specialist columns for reasons of space.
Only two flights have carried more than seven crew members for either launch or landing. STS-61-A in 1985 is the only flight to have both launched and landed with a crew of eight, and STS-71 in 1995 is the only other flight to have landed with a crew of eight.
