CREW TRAINING (SHUTTLE MISSION SIMULATOR [SMS]) - STS-3 - JSC

S82-28535 (16 March 1982) --- One of the more pleasant surprises of what are usually routine training sessions today was Mrs. Marie Fullerton, seated in the foreground in a special chair. Astronauts Jack R. Lousma, left background, and C. Gordon Fullerton, center, take a brief break in their simulation session to look back toward their visitor, wife of the pilot for NASA?s next flight. They are in the shuttle mission simulator (SMS) in the LBJ Space Center?s mission simulation and training facility. The crew is in training for its scheduled March 22 launch aboard the space shuttle Columbia for a week?s stay in Earth orbit. Photo credit: NASA
