STS081-E-05100 (12 Jan. 1997) --- Astronaut Peter J. K. (Jeff) Wisoff, mission specialist, carries a stowage drawer from the middeck of the Space Shuttle Atlantis' crew cabin through a connective tunnel into the Spacehab Double Module (DM). In a few days, Wisoff and his five crew mates are scheduled to dock with Russia's Mir Space Station and pick up John E. Blaha, NASA astronaut who has been serving as a cosmonaut guest researcher since September, 1996. Astronaut Jerry M. Linenger will replace Blaha onboard Mir and the transfer will mark the second such direct exchange of cosmonaut guest researchers, though Linenger will be the fourth United States astronaut to spend a lengthy stay on Mir.
