STS083-317-009 (4-8 April 1997) --- Astronaut Susan L. Still, pilot, goes over a checklist at the control panel on the aft flight deck of the Earth-orbiting Space Shuttle Columbia. Scheduled originally as a 16-day mission, the Microgravity Sciences Laboratory (MSL-1) flight completed about one-fourth of its manifest time frame prior to being cut short by a power shortage.

STS080-317-018 (28 Nov. 1996) --- Astronauts Thomas D. Jones, with a hammer, and Tamara E. Jernigan, holding a crow bar, display just two of the tools they called on during an intense effort to open the space shuttle Columbia's hatch leading to the cargo bay. Scheduled Extravehicular Activities (EVA) for the two were canceled by NASA when all efforts to open the hatch were unsuccessful.

STS082-317-003 (11 -21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronaut Joseph R. Tanner, one half of a space walk team on mission STS-82 to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), watches the Extravehicular Activity (EVA) of another team from Discovery's aft flight deck. Through Discovery's overhead window, lakes and a timber area appear almost close enough for Tanner to touch.

STS087-317-033 (19 November – 5 December 1997) --- Astronaut Takao Doi, mission specialist, prepares for one of two extravehicular activities (EVA) in the Airlock Module of the Earth-orbiting Space Shuttle Columbia. Takao Doi, an international astronaut stationed at Johnson Space Center (JSC), represents Japan's National Space Development Agency (NASDA). This view was taken with a 35mm camera.

STS102-317-027 (8-21 March 2001)--- Onboard the Destiny laboratory on the International Space Station (ISS), astronaut James D. Wetherbee, mission commander, is photographed in a surfing position on astronaut James M. Kelly, pilot, while he is loading the IMAX camera. Astronaut James S. Voss, Expedition Two flight engineer is visible working in the background.

STS087-317-036 (19 November – 5 December 1997) --- Astronaut Winston E. Scott, mission specialist, goes through final touches of space suit donning in preparation for one of two extravehicular activities (EVA) he performed in and around the cargo bay of the Space Shuttle Columbia. Scott was joined by astronaut Takao Doi, an international mission specialist representing Japan's National Space Development Agency (NASDA), on both EVAs.

STS102-317-008 (8–21 March 2001) --- Astronaut Andrew S. W. Thomas, STS-102 mission specialist is photographed here in the Leonardo Multi-Purpose Logistics Module (MPLM) which was built by the Italian Space Agency (ASI). The MPLM is the first of three such pressurized modules that will serve as the International Space Station’s “moving vans”, carrying laboratory racks filled with equipment, experiments and supplies to and from the station aboard the space shuttle.

NASA’s IMAP (Interstellar Mapping and Acceleration Probe) observatory arrives at Building 2 where technicians will load 317 pounds (or 144 kilograms) of hydrazine into three tanks into the spacecraft at the Astrotech Space Operations Facility near NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Tuesday, Aug. 12, 2025. IMAP will explore and map the boundaries of the heliosphere — a huge bubble created by the Sun’s wind that encapsulates our entire solar system — and study how the heliosphere interacts with the local galactic neighborhood beyond.

While NASA’s F/A-18 goes supersonic off the coast, a team of researchers monitor the flight and operate multiple sound monitor stations around Galveston and its surrounding area. This allows NASA to obtain accurate sound level data, which gets matched to community response data.

These two images illustrate just how far Cassini traveled to get to Saturn. On the left is one of the earliest images Cassini took of the ringed planet, captured during the long voyage from the inner solar system. On the right is one of Cassini's final images of Saturn, showing the site where the spacecraft would enter the atmosphere on the following day. In the left image, taken in 2001, about six months after the spacecraft passed Jupiter for a gravity assist flyby, the best view of Saturn using the spacecraft's high-resolution (narrow-angle) camera was on the order of what could be seen using the Earth-orbiting Hubble Space Telescope. At the end of the mission (at right), from close to Saturn, even the lower resolution (wide-angle) camera could capture just a tiny part of the planet. The left image looks toward Saturn from 20 degrees below the ring plane and was taken on July 13, 2001 in wavelengths of infrared light centered at 727 nanometers using the Cassini spacecraft narrow-angle camera. The view at right is centered on a point 6 degrees north of the equator and was taken in visible light using the wide-angle camera on Sept. 14, 2017. The view on the left was acquired at a distance of approximately 317 million miles (510 million kilometers) from Saturn. Image scale is about 1,900 miles (3,100 kilometers) per pixel. The view at right was acquired at a distance of approximately 360,000 miles (579,000 kilometers) from Saturn. Image scale is 22 miles (35 kilometers) per pixel. The Cassini spacecraft ended its mission on Sept. 15, 2017. https://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA21353
