Marooned (1969)


Oh, God, I'm tired, Charles.
- I'm tired.
- Stoney, put on your helmet.
Open the hatch.
Open the hatch.
Open...
All right.
- Blow hatch.
- Negative, do not blow the hatch.
Open it with the lever,
the unlocking lever.
Do you read me, Stoney?
Stoney?
Flight, this is Rescue,
I've got their light.
Roger, Ted, you've got
their acq lights.
Blow hatch.
- Blow the hatch.
- Do not. Do not blow the hatch!
Hatch blown. [ giggling ]

STS-71 Day 3 Highlights

Back to STS-71 Flight Day 02 Highlights:

On Thursday, June 29, 1995, 4 a.m. CDT, STS-71 MCC Status Report # 04 reports:

Atlantis' seven astronauts awoke at 1:32 a.m. CDT to "From a Distance," as sung by Nanci Griffith. The wake-up music was preceded by special birthday greetings to Pilot Charlie Precourt from his wife and daughters. Precourt is celebrating his 40th birthday today soaring 216 nautical miles above the surface of the Earth.

The STS-71 crew members almost immediately set to work preparing for this morning's planned docking with the Mir Space Station.

Shortly before 3 a.m., Atlantis' orbital maneuvering system engines were fired for 45 seconds. That NC4 burn raised the low end of Atlantis' orbit and positioned the shuttle roughly eight nautical miles behind Mir. One orbit later, at about 4:30 a.m., Commander Hoot Gibson was scheduled to again fire the jets for the terminal initiation burn which begins the final phase of the rendezvous. That burn will put Atlantis in position to intercept the Mir Space Station from a point directly below Mir, on an imaginary line called the R-Bar or Earth radius vector.

On Thursday, June 29, 1995, 5:30 p.m CDT, STS-71 MCC Status Report # 05 reports:

Atlantis station kept in that position at a distance of about 250 feet from the Mir awaiting the approval of NASA Flight Director Bob Castle and Russian Flight Director Viktor Blagov to proceed with the docking. Atlantis then closed to a point 30 feet from Mir at about 7:40 a.m. before beginning its final approach toward the docking port located on the Kristall module.

Atlantis and MIR were successfully docked at 8 a.m.. Commander Hoot Gibson of Atlantis flew the shuttle to a flawless docking with the Mir station exactly on schedule while the two spacecraft were 216 nautical miles above the Lake Baykal region of the Russian Federation. Mission Specialist Greg Harbaugh then engaged the docking mechanism to firmly latch the spacecraft together. Once docking was confirmed, the astronauts on board Atlantis and the cosmonauts on board Mir performed leak checks of the tunnel connecting the two spacecraft. With that complete, the hatches opened and Gibson and Mir 18 Commander Vladimir Dezhurov shook hands as Americans and Russians met in space for the first time in 20 years. Atlantis' crew then completed a transfer of responsibilities for the station from the three Mir-18 crew members to the two Mir-19 crewmen.

Following a transfer of personal gear and a changeout of the individual, custom-made foam seat liners in the Soyuz capsule also docked to Mir, Mir-19 Commander Anatoly Solovyev and Flight Engineer Nikolai Budarin officially assumed duties on the station.

Later, the Spacelab module in Atlantis cargo bay was reactivated by Mission Specialist Bonnie Dunbar in preparation for a variety of medical experiments that will be performed during the next four days. Solovyev and Budarin will sleep aboard the Mir tonight while astronaut Norm Thagard and cosmonauts Vladimir Dezhurov and Gennady Strekalov, aboard Mir for the past 105 days, will sleep aboard Atlantis.

Atlantis and Mir, now the single largest spacecraft ever in orbit with a total mass of almost one-half million pounds, have performed as expected in the nine and a half hours they have so far been attached. No significant problems or surprises have been observed by Mission Control. The crew will begin an eight-hour sleep period at 5:32 p.m. today and awaken at 1:32 a.m. Friday.










From 11/10/1969 ( premiere US film "Marooned" ) To 6/27/1995 ( the launch of the US space shuttle Atlantis orbiter vehicle mission STS-71 includes me Kerry Wayne Burgess the US Marine Corps officer and STS-71 pilot astronaut ) is 9360 days

From 11/2/1965 ( my birth date in Antlers Oklahoma USA and my birthdate as the known official United States Marshal Kerry Wayne Burgess and active duty United States Marine Corps officer ) To 6/19/1991 ( premiere US film "The Rocketeer" ) is 9360 days

STS-71 Day 1 Highlights


On Tuesday, June 27, 1995, 7 p.m. CDT, STS-71 MCC Status Report # 01 reports:

Atlantis first achieved an orbit with a high point of 158 nautical miles by 85 nautical miles, the lowest orbital altitude ever flown by a Space Shuttle, allowing the spacecraft to close the more than 7,000 nautical miles to Mir rapidly at first, at a rate of about 880 nautical miles per orbit. Three hours and thirty-nine minutes after launch, Atlantis fired both Orbital Maneuvering System engines for a little over two minutes to raise its orbit to an altitude of 210 nautical miles by 158 nautical miles, an engine firing called the NC-1 burn that has now slowed Atlantis' closing rate on the Mir.

The shuttle is now about 5,400 nautical miles from Mir, closing on the station by about 280 nautical miles with each one and a half-hour orbit of Earth. The next engine firing by Atlantis was not scheduled until early Wednesday morning, and all activities remain on target for a docking with Mir at about 8 a.m. Thursday.
