Rominger, Mission Specialists, Tamara E. Jernigan, Thomas D. Jones, and F. Story Musgrave, complete the first major objective of the mission with the deployment of the Orbiting Retrievable Far and Extreme Ultraviolet Spectrometer (ORFEUS) on the reusable Shuttle Pallet Satellite. Release of ORFEUS from Columbia's robot arm came at 8 hours 15 minutes mission elapsed time. Three hours after the release, ground controllers inform the crew that the instrument package appears to be working properly. This begins two weeks of gathering data on the origin and makeup of stars. Released Nov. 1996.
