STS-56 Launch
The second try works like a charm as the Space Shuttle Discovery lifts off from Launch Pad 39B on Mission STS-56 at 1:29:00 a.m. EDT, April 8. First attempt to launch Discovery on its 16th space voyage was halted at T-11 seconds on April 6. Aboard for the second Space Shuttle mission of 1993 are a crew of five and the Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science 2 (ATLAS 2), the second in a series of missions to study the suns energy output and Earths middle atmosphere chemical makeup, and how these factors affect levels of ozone

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the awe-inspiring moment when the Space Shuttle Discovery defies gravity and soars into the vastness of space. The second attempt to launch on Mission STS-56 proves to be a resounding success, as Discovery lifts off flawlessly from Launch Pad 39B at 1:29:00 a. m. EDT on April 8. Just two days prior, anticipation had filled the air as the initial launch was halted abruptly at T-11 seconds on April 6. However, undeterred by setbacks, the determined crew of five astronauts persevered and embarked upon their historic journey. Accompanying them onboard is ATLAS 2 - The Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science 2. This groundbreaking scientific instrument marks the second in a series of missions aimed at unraveling mysteries surrounding our sun's energy output and Earth's middle atmosphere chemical composition. By studying these factors meticulously, scientists hope to gain valuable insights into how they impact ozone levels. The image encapsulates both human ingenuity and our insatiable thirst for knowledge about our universe. Against a backdrop of darkness speckled with stars, Discovery emerges like a beacon of progress amidst an infinite expanse. This photograph serves as a testament to mankind's relentless pursuit of exploration and understanding. It reminds us that even in moments where failure seems imminent, perseverance can lead us towards extraordinary achievements that push boundaries beyond what we once thought possible.
