STS034-06-025 (18-23 Oct. 1989) --- Astronaut Donald E. Williams spent a portion of the five-day STS-34 flight at Atlantis' commander's station and, as evidenced by his countenance in this posed photo, appeared to enjoy his second spaceflight, his first as a mission commander. Astronaut Michael J. McCulley, pilot, leans over the pilot's station at right. This 35mm scene was in the first 12 photos released by NASA on Oct. 24, 1989.
