beskrivelse:

The STS-31 crew of five included (left to right) Charles F. Bolden, pilot; Steven A. Hawley, mission specialist; Loren J. Shriver, commander; Bruce McCandless, mission specialist; and Kathryn D. Sullivan, mission specialist. Launched aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990 at 8:33:51am (EDT), the primary payload was the Hubble Space Telescope. This was the first flight to use carbon brakes at landing.

• The five astronaut crew members for the STS-31 mission chose a busy night sky scene as a background for their portrait. Loren J. Shriver (center front) is mission commander. Other crew members are (left to right), Charles F. Bolden Jr., pilot; Steven A. Hawley, Bruce McCandless II, and Kathryn D. Sullivan, all mission specialists. The Hubble Space Telescope, depicted in the upper left of the background scene, was deployed by Discovery’s crew on April 25, 1990.
