McCandless and Stewart
: the first human satellites
|
Bruce McCandless and Robert Stewart performed
a dress rehearsal for the Solar Maximum Mission (Solar Max) satellite retrieval,
scheduled for the next flight (STS 41-C). On 7 February 1984, during an
EVA, McCandless became the firt human to fly in space onboard the MMU jetpack
("Manned Maneuvering Unit"). He became independant of the Orbiter, thus
becoming a satellite of its own. He first moves 45 meter out from
Challenger, returned to the payload bay, flew out to 96 meters and returned,
then moved out again to about 99 meters. Stewart then flew the MMU
93 meter from Challenger. |

The second satellite designed and built by
the University of Surrey's Spacecraft Engineering Research Group in the
United Kingdom, UoSAT-2 was the test-bed for the packet radio satellites
as we know them today. Among its many experiments, it carries the Digital
Communications Experiment, which was one of the first (if not the first)
non-military use of store-and-forward techniques with Low Earth Orbiting
Satellites. It also carries a prototype CCD camera. UoSAT-2 weights 60
kg and measxure 585 x 355 x 355 mm. |

Nelson used a
MMU to capture a satellite
|
On 8 April 1984, George Nelson used a MMU
("Manned Maneuvering Unit") to try to retrieve the Solar Maximum Mission
satellite, but without success. He thus leaves the payload bay of Challenger
to become a "human satellite". (The Solar Max was later capture by the
RMS/Canadarm and repaired on 11 April by two walking astronauts. Van Hoften
also took the MMU on a short test flight in the payload bay.) |

the nearly 9-year-old Spacenet 1 from GTE. In 1993, the spacecraft, renamed
Zhongxing 5 (aka Chinasat 5) and was moved to 115.5° East. The spacecraft's
payload consists of 18 C-band and six Ku-band transponders. Subsequently,
China and INTELSAT reached an agreement on joint ownership of Zhongxing
5 and the to-be-launched Intelsat
805. |

Allen and Gardner used
a MMU to retrieve two errant satellites
|
On 12 November 1984, Joseph Allen donned
a MMU. He then flew to the 555-kg Palapa B-2 and, with the help of Dale
Gardner, proceed to stow the satellite into Discovery's payload bay. On
14 November, Gardner (using a MMU) proceed to retrieve in the same way
the 499-kg Westar VI satellite. This EVA marks the final flight of the
MMU; the two flight units were used in six EVAs and had flown a total of
10 hours and 22 minutes in space. |
