The primary objectives of the STS 41-D mission were the deployment of the SYNCOM-IV, Telstar 3-C, and SBS-D satellites; operation of the OAST-1 (Office of Aeronautics and Space Technology-1) payload; and accomplishment of the functions of the Radiation Monitoring Equipment (RME), the Continuous Flow Electrophoresis System (CFES III), and the IMAX Camera.
The STS 41-D mission, the first for the OV-103 vehicle, Discovery, was scheduled for launch on June 25, 1984, and June 26, 1984, and August 29, 1984.
The fifth day of the STS 41-D mission was completed with all Orbiter subsystems and experiment systems operating satisfactorily, but a major concern existed over the ice formation on the supply and waste dump nozzles.

  Some Notorious 'Anomalous' Shuttle Events
STS 41-D (1984) has views of the meter-long "space icicle" that had to be knocked loose from the shuttle's water dump port.
STS 63 (1995) was the first rendezvous with the Mir space station, almost cancelled due to a leaky thruster that forms a space blizzard on camera.
STS 75 (1996) has great views of the broken tether that led to the loss of a satellite, but the weirdest sequence shows a cloud of ice crystals floating ahead of and below the shuttle in the dark, flickering randomly in the moonlight.

 usnews.com: Auto reviews: Cadillac STS (3/23/05)
Like the entry-level CTS, the STS is edgy and bold, with the same angular styling that mocks the silken lines of Japanese luxury mobiles like Lexus.
Skin-tight bucket seats and a cozy cockpit create a sports-car impression, even though the STS is as heavy as the Cad that your grandfather drove 20 years ago.
The STS doesn't have quite the refined, organic seamlessness of competitors that have been around for a while, but it is more fun and arguably more individualistic.

 Strange Shuttle Sights: Unearthly and Mundane
STS 41-D (1984) has views of the meter-long "space icicle" that had tobe knocked loose from the shuttle's water dump port.
The notorious STS 48 and STS 80 videos, for example, share some common factors not known to amateur investigators, and these factors provide convincing proof of their routine nature.
On the STS 61 (December 1993) mission to service the Hubble Space Telescope, there's a flashing object off to the side of the telescope as the shuttle pulls away.

 TEAMQUEST '96 Manned Space Flight
Thus, the next flight, instead of being designated STS-10, became STS 41-B. The new numbering system was designed to be more specific in that the first numeral stood for the fiscal year in which the launch was to take place, the "4" being 1984.
The STS 41-B crew included commander Vance D. Brand (his second Shuttle flight), pilot Robert L. Gibson; and mission specialists, Bruce McCandless II, Ronald E. McNair, and Robert L. Stewart were on board for the ride also.
B-2 and 6 had been deployed during the STS 41-B mission earlier in the year and had been placed into improper orbits because their kick motors malfunctioned.

 2006 Cadillac STS - Cadillac - Ratings & Reviews | J.D. Power   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The STS, which replaced the Seville in the Cadillac lineup for 2005, is built on GM’s highly-regarded Sigma chassis architecture that also underpins the Cadillac CTS and SRX.
The STS comes standard with heated leather seats and steering wheel; Adaptive Remote Start and Adaptive Cruise Control; Intellibeam automatic headlamp dimming; one year of OnStar service with Cadillac Virtual Advisor; a reconfigurable four-color, head-up instrument display; woven headliner and pillar covers; and an interior combination of eucalyptus wood and aluminum.
Based on the same platform as that of the CTS, the STS is the Seville's opposite, and Cadillac hopes it will bring in younger buyers who might normally gravitate toward European and Japanese luxury models.
