STS-3 (Space Transportation System-3) var NASAs tredje rumfærge-mission. Opsendt 22. marts 1982 og vendte tilbage den 30. marts 1982.
Den var den tredje test af rumfartøjet, målet var derfor sikker affyring og returnering af rumfærge og besætning. Også sikker returnering af; rumfærgen, faststofraketterne og udvendig tank.
Den eksterne tank var ikke længere hvid, for at undgå en vægt forøgelse på 375 kg undlod man at male rumfærgen.
Den planlagte landing på Edwards Air Force Base måtte flyttes da der var oversvømmelse pga. voldsom regn. Landingen blev flyttet til White Sands, men pga. af høje vindhastigheder ved White Sands måtte landingen udskydes en dag.
Besætning
De to testpiloter sad i katapultsæder.
- Jack Lousma (Kaptajn, Skylab 3-veteran)
- Gordon Fullerton (Pilot, Enterprise-veteran)
Missionen
STS-3 var ligesom STS-1 og STS-2 en test-mission. Målet var derfor sikker opsendelse og returnering af rumfærge og besætning. Også sikker returnering af; rumfærgen, faststofraketterne og udvendig tank.
Vægt
- Kredsløbsfartøj (ved opsendelse): 106782 kg.
- Kredsløbsfartøj (ved landing): 93924 kg.
- Last: 10301 kg.
- STS-3 opsendelsen.
- Robot-armen kaldtes Canadarm, den var produceret i Canada.
- STS-3 lander på White Sands Missile Range

This scene represents the end of NASA's STS-1 mission and the beginning of STS-2 in that the orbiter Columbia is arriving at Kennedy Space Center in Florida to begin the lengthy process of preparing it for STS-2. The vehicle landed at Dryden Flight Research Center on April 14 after an historic 2 1/3 day flight in Earth orbit. It was mated to this 747 aircraft, titled NASA 905, and flown over the USA to its Florida destination. It was later removed from atop NASA 905 and moved to the orbiter processing facility for the beginning of refurbishment.
