First Space Shuttle Enterprise Makes Solo Desert Landing
At Edwards Air Force Base California astronauts Fred Haise and Gordon Fullerton piloted the Space Shuttle Enterprise on its first solo glide from a 25000 foot altitude to a flawless desert lane landing. The 75 ton craft landed on a lakebed runway after a five minute descent, using a five computer control system to translate pilot orders into precise maneuvers. The mission marked a milestone toward the 1980s goal of a reusable space vehicle capable of seven crew and up to 65000 pounds of cargo.
