First Space Shuttle Mission launches, Florida, USA, April 12, 1981. Creator: NASA

First Space Shuttle Mission launches, Florida, USA, April 12, 1981. Space Shuttle Columbia and STS-1 lift off from NASAs Kennedy Space Center, marking the first flight of the Space Shuttle Program. Columbias 36-orbit flight tested the vehicles performance as a reusable spacecraft. The orbiter successfully returned to Earth two days later, and for the next 30 years the programs five spacecraft carried people into orbit repeatedly, launched, recovered and repaired satellites, conducted cutting-edge research and built the largest structure in space, the International Space Station. NASA Marshall Space Flight Centers Payload Operations Integration Center served as " science central" for the space station, working 24/7, 365 days a year in support of the orbiting laboratorys scientific experiments
