definition: A variety of scientific questions will be addressed when NASA conducts Shuttle mission STS-56 in late March 1993. The crew on Space Shuttle Discovery will gather data on the relationship between sun's energy output and Earth's middle-atmosphere chemical make-up and how these factors affect the Earth's ozone level. The crew will use the Atmospheric Laboratory for Science and Applications (ATLAS 2) and Shuttle Backscatter Ultraviolet (SSBUV) payloads aboard Discovery to gather this information. The source of solar wind and the possible applications a microgravity environment can provide for research in drug development and the changes which occur in muscles and bones in a weightless condition are some of the other areas to be investigated during the STS-56 mission. {Summary provided by NASA] Group: Platform_Details Entry_ID: STS-56 Group: Platform_Identification Platform_Category: Space Stations/Manned Spacecraft Platform_Series_or_Entity: SPACE SHUTTLE Short_Name: STS-56 Long_Name: Space Transport System STS-56 End_Group Group: Synonymous_Platform_Names Short_Name: DISCOVERY End_Group Group: Orbit Orbit_Altitude: 160nm Orbit_Inclination: 57 degrees End_Group Creation_Date: 2008-01-30 Online_Resource: http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/missions/sts-56/mission-sts-56.html Sample_Image: http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/missions/sts-56/sts-56-patch-small.gif Group: Platform_Logistics Launch_Date: 1993-04-08 Primary_Sponsor: NASA End_Group End_Group
