https://peertube.dngr.us/videos/watch/9cb9f267-be2d-4604-a991-bc1d9ec7def9 On this fifteenth day of the STS-78 mission, the 4th of July, Cmdr. Terence T. Henricks, Pilot Kevin R. Kregel, Payload Cmdr. Susan J. Helms, Mission Specialists Richard M. Linnehan, Charles E. Brady, Jr., and Payload Specialists Jean-Jacques Favier, Ph.D. and Robert B. Thirsk, M.D., are awakened with Bruce Springsteen's 'Born in the USA' and Lee Greenwood's 'I'm Proud to be an American' to begin another a day on orbit. Mission Commander Tom Henricks responded to Mission Control's wake up call by saying that the five US-born crew members were very proud to be Americans, particularly on the day America celebrates its 220th anniversary. Work in the Spacelab module will continue with investigations into the effects of microgravity on muscle strength and endurance, lung function, and adaptation of the neurovestibular system to a microgravity environment. Henricks and Pilot Kevin Kregel will complete work with a laptop computer designed to test the crew's critical thinking skills and reaction time. They also will test a voice control system that allows them to reposition Columbia's closed-circuit television cameras with verbal cues, keeping their hands free to perform other tasks. Released July 1996.
