STS-59 red shift crew on Endeavour's middeck

STS059-05-007 (9-20 April 1994) --- On Endeavour's middeck, the three STS-59 red shift crew members begin to organize what was believed to be among the longest mail messages in recent Shuttle history. With the picture held vertically, astronaut Sidney M. Gutierrez, mission commander, is in upper right. Also seen are astronauts Linda M. Godwin, payload commander, and Kevin P. Chilton, pilot. Though early Shuttle flights could brag of longer teleprinted messages, this Thermal Imaging Printing System's (TIPS) message from the ground competes with those of recent Shuttle flights.
