Pilot Jett reviews checklist on flight deck

STS081-E-5008 (12 Jan. 1997) --- Astronaut Brent W. Jett, Jr., pilot, looks over a check list on the Space Shuttle Atlantis' aft flight deck as he joins five crew mates (out of frame) in readying the Orbiter for almost ten days in Earth-orbit. Part of that time, Atlantis will be docked with Russia's Mir Space Station. The second exchange of NASA astronauts serving as cosmonaut guest researchers will occur at that time. The scene was recorded with an Electronic Still Camera (ESC) and later downlinked to flight controllers in Houston, Texas.
