亚特兰蒂斯号航天飞机于1994年11月3日从39B发射台执行STS-66任务，至今32年。Donald R. McMonagle任指令长，Curtis L. Brown Jr.任飞行员，Ellen Ochoa任载荷指挥官，另有Tanner、Clervoy（ESA）、Parazynski三位任务专家。
STS-66, Atlantis, launched 32 years ago (3 Nov 1994) from 39B.
Donald R. McMonagle commanded her, with Curtis L. Brown Jr. as pilot. Also flying: Ellen Ochoa, payload commander. Joseph R. Tanner, mission specialist. Jean-François Clervoy (ESA), mission specialist. Scott E. Parazynski, mission specialist.
The ATLAS-3 "Mission to Planet Earth" flight studied the Sun's energy output and ozone-layer chemistry. The crew also deployed and retrieved the CRISTA-SPAS satellite.
It was also Atlantis's last flight without a "safe haven" ISS or Mir docking until STS-125 in 2009.
Watch for the two relevant synergies with today's posts!
