In this remarkable photograph captured by mission specialist Donald H. Peterson with a 35 mm still camera, we witness the final moments before Challenger's safe landing. Commanded by astronaut Paul J. Weitz and piloted by Karol J. Bobko, STS-6 was a significant milestone in space exploration during the vibrant decade of the 1980s. Driven by curiosity and determination, astronauts F. Story Musgrave and Peterson joined forces to embark on this historic journey. From high above Earth's atmosphere, this aerial view showcases the magnificent spacecraft gliding through the sky with utmost precision and grace. The vivid colors of our planet serve as a backdrop for this iconic moment in American history.
