STS081-E-5001 (12 Jan. 1997) --- Aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantis on its first day in orbit for the mission, astronaut John M. Grunsfeld, mission specialist, begins to input mission data on a lap top general purpose computer. Grunsfeld and five crew mates are flying the Spacehab Double Module (DM), replete with supplies for the three-man crew aboard Russia's Mir Space Station with which Atlantis will be docking later in the week. The scene was recorded with an Electronic Still Camera (ESC) and later downlinked to flight controllers in Houston, Texas.
