The Team I was flying on, ARIA, we were staged out of Hickam AB, HI supporting that mission, Telemetry.
We were flying in a 6 mile orbit over the Pacific, awaiting the release of the payload: TDRS-B Tracking Data Relay Satellite...and BOOM, it never made it into orbit.
A LOT to be said about that launch...lots of info.
