	Encyclopedia: STS 107
		STS stands for "Space Transportation System", a.k.a the Space Shuttle, and "107" is the "flight tail number" or the 107th flight of the Space Shuttle, although the order of missions may have changed after assignment of the flight number.
		STS-107 is a Shuttle mission dedicated to research investigating human physiology, fire suppression, and other areas of research relevant to people across the globe, hence the theme Space Research and You.
		The research on STS-107 builds on our experiences with Skylab and Spacelab, and supports longer, more ambitious research aboard the International Space Station (ISS).

	STS 107 Mystery Object
		On Flight Day 2 of STS 107, an object came loose from Columbia; three days later it decayed from orbit.
		Two pieces catalogued from STS 51, appear to be from the anomalous deployment of the ACTS satellite, which resulted in the shedding of debris into orbit.
		Most of the catalogued debris were items confirmed lost by astronauts during EVAs: a screwdriver on STS 51I, a wire carrier and a socket on STS 88, a pad on STS 102.

	STS-107: Space Shuttle Columbia Breakup: QuickSciTech
		Eighty-two seconds into STS 107, a sizeable piece of debris struck the left wing of the Columbia...
		On the basis of video that showed a chunk of insulation apparently impacting the wing, plus calculations indicating that ET insulation could have been the cause of the hole in the leading edge of the wing, the board flatly declared that ET insulation was the cause of the Columbia breakup.
		At this time Columbia was traveling at a speed of about 2300 feet/second (fps) through an altitude of about 65,900 feet.

	EO Study: SOLSE
		The Shuttle Columbia (STS 107) carried the Shuttle Ozone Limb Sounding Experiment-2 (SOLSE-2) as a demonstration of new technology that will be used on the next generation of meteorological satellites to monitor ozone change.
		Current instruments flying on NOAA and NASA satellites look directly downward toward the Earth, which limits their ability to accurately measure ozone in the lower layers of the stratosphere, the layer of atmosphere 10 to 50 kilometers (6.2 to 31 miles) in altitude.
		The data used in this study are available in one or more of NASA's Earth Science Data Centers.

		The FSS first flew on STS 41-C (the Solar Max Repair) and was reused for each of the HST SM flights.
		The countdown for Columbia's launch was halted by on-board computers at T-3 seconds following a problem with purge pressure readings in the oxidizer preburner on main engine #2 Columbia's three main engines were replaced on the launch pad, and the flight was rescheduled behind Discovery's launch on STS-56.
