About this work
S81-39527 (12 Nov. 1981) --- This photograph of the STS-2 crew and the space shuttle Columbia soaring toward Earth orbit was captured with a hand-held 70mm camera (using an 80mm lens) operated from the rear station of a T-38 jet aircraft. Mission specialist-astronaut Kathryn D. Sullivan took the picture, and part of the wing tip of her aircraft can be seen in lower left corner. Astronaut John W. Young piloting NASA?s shuttle training aircraft (STA) was taking pictures from a higher angle.
