NASA - Space Shuttle Overview: Challenger (OV-099) In early 1979, NASA awarded Space Shuttle orbiter manufacturer Rockwell a contract to convert STA-099 to a space-rated orbiter, OV-099. First called STA-099, Challenger was built to serve as a test vehicle for the Space Shuttle program. But despite its Earth-bound beginnings, STA-099 was destined for space. www.nasa.gov /centers/kennedy/shuttleoperations/orbiters/challenger-info.html   (452 words)

Space Shuttle Challenger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Challenger was the second shuttle orbiter to be placed into service (after Columbia) and was constructed using a body frame (STA-099) that had initially been produced for use as a test article. Challenger was refitted for flight after it was discovered it was cheaper to rebuild STA-099 than to refit OV-101 Space Shuttle Enterprise to be space ready.

chris-ford.com :: Shuttles A decision in 1978 not to modify Enterprise from her approach and landing test configuration would have left Columbia as the only operational orbiter vehicle so NASA awarded Rockwell a supplemental contract to convert Challenger (STA-099) from a test vehicle into a space-rated Orbiter (OV-099). Orbiter Test Article (OK-ML-1 / OK-M) OK-ML-1 was built in Moscow and was originally designated OK-M. She was used to test components and for normal temperature static load tests. Discovery, the third orbiter to become operational at KSC, was named after one of two ships that were used by the Captain James Cook in the 1770s during voyages in the South Pacific that led to the discovery of the Hawaiian Islands. www.chris-ford.com /shuttles.php   (1351 words)

Space Shuttle Enterprise - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It was intended to be the second space shuttle to fly after the Space Shuttle Columbia even though Enterprise was built first; however, it was found to be cheaper to refit a test article (STA-099) into the Space Shuttle Challenger. In 2003, after the breakup of the Shuttle Columbia during re-entry, a fiberglass panel from Enterprise's wing was removed to undergo testing [1]. The Space Shuttle Enterprise (NASA Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-101) was the first shuttle built for NASA. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Space_Shuttle_Enterprise   (1351 words)

Orbiter Vehicle Designation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Enterprise, on the other hand, was intended to be rebuilt into a flight-capable orbiter; it was found to be cheaper to rebuild STA-099 than OV-101, so she remained unflown. Each NASA space shuttle designation is composed of a prefix and suffix separated by a dash. Pathfinder was originally a "fit check" unit, a simple mockup resembling the production Orbiters in size, shape and weight, intended to be used to ensure that ground handling facilities would be sized to handle Orbiters. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/OV-201   (1351 words)

NASA - Space Shuttle Overview: Challenger (OV-099) First called STA-099, Challenger was built to serve as a test vehicle for the Space Shuttle program. Space Shuttle orbiter Challenger was named after the British Naval research vessel HMS Challenger that sailed the Atlantic and Pacific oceans during the 1870s.

Space Shuttle Challenger - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Challenger was constructed using a body frame (STA-099) that had initially been built as a test article. Debris recovered from Space Shuttle Challenger was moved from Kennedy Space Center's Complex 39 to permanent storage in two secure abandoned Minuteman Missile silos at Complex 31 on the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Space Shuttle Challenger flew 10 flights, spent 62.41 days in space, completed 995 orbits, and flew 25,803,940 miles (it is unknown whether these are nautical or statute miles; 41,527,416 km if statute) in total, including its final mission. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Space_Shuttle_Challenger   (578 words)

John F. Kennedy Space Center - Space Shuttle Challenger STA-099 underwent 11 months of intensive vibration testing in a 43 ton steel rig built especially for the Space Shuttle Test Program. These modifications included extra plumbing to load and vent Centaur's cryogenic (L02/LH2) propellants (other IUS/PAM upper stages use solid propellants), and controls on the aft flight deck for loading and monitoring the Centaur stage. No Centaur flight was ever flown and after the loss of Challenger it was decided that the risk was too great to launch a shuttle with a fueled Centaur upper stage in the payload bay. www-pao.ksc.nasa.gov /shuttle/resources/orbiters/Challenger.html   (578 words)

Flare Sci-Fi Forums: Logos logos everywhere... (Part 2) Challenger was originally a structural test article (STA-099) and was later converted into an orbiter. As a matter of fact, if you wanted to be reeeeeally technical about it, it *could* have come before Columbia as well. In that thread about patches at that TrekBBS board they said that OV-101 was Enterprise, OV-102 was Columbia but Challenger was something-99 - what's up with that was it built before Enterprise? flare.solareclipse.net /ultimatebb.php/topic/7/1306/18.html   (654 words)
