Background information

Discovery made history as the third orbiter in the Space Shuttle fleet. Its first flight on August 30, 1984 marked the beginning of a remarkable career with 39 successful missions. It transported the Hubble Space Telescope into space, put numerous research satellites into orbit and played a key role in the construction of the International Space Station (ISS).

As the most reliable orbiter in NASA's fleet, Discovery proved its importance, especially after the tragic losses of Challenger and Columbia. She led the return-to-flight missions both times and thus set important signals for the continuation of manned space travel.
