This week in 1995, space shuttle Discovery, mission STS-70, landed at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center following a successful eight-day mission. STS-70’s key objective was to deploy a Tracking and Data Relay Satellite – TDRS-G – while the remainder of the mission was spent performing a variety of experiments. Here, members of the Kennedy’s Payload Processing Team hoist TDRS-G into a work stand in the Vertical Processing Facility for mating with its Inertial Upper Stage, After testing and final checkout, TDRS-G and the stage were transported to Launch Pad 39B and installed into the Discovery’s payload bay.
