EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures the awe-inspiring moment of the Space Shuttle Columbia lifting off from the Kennedy Space Centre in the USA. The shuttle's mission, STS-83, focused on conducting a series of groundbreaking experiments within the Microgravity Science Laboratory (MSL-1).

Joining them as payload specialists were Roger Crouch and Gregory Linteris. Taken on 4 April 1997, this image encapsulates both excitement and anticipation for what lay ahead during this historic manned spaceflight.

It serves as a reminder that even amidst setbacks, exploration remains an integral part of our collective spirit.
