STS-51-F (Space Transportation System-51-F) var Challengers 8. rumfærge-flyvning, opsendt d. 29. juli 1985 og vendte tilbage d. 6 august 1985.

Missionen medbragte rum-laboratoriet Spacelab-2 med eksperimenter.

Fem minutter efter opsendelsen svigtede den ene af rumfærgens tre hovedmotorer, hvilket medførte en såkaldt Abort to orbit, og rumfærgen måtte gå i et lavere kredsløb end planlagt.
