Views of the Challenger landing at Kennedy to end shuttle mission 41-B

"Shortly after sunrise the space shuttle orbiter Challenger touches down on the KSC runway at 7:16 a.m. The T-38 escort chase plane is seen just above the orbiter. The historic first landing at KSC brought to a conclusion an eight-day mission that started at 8:00 a.m. Feb. 3, 1984. The STS-41-B mission had several other firsts including an untethered spacewalk made by two of the astronauts."

Date: February 11, 1984

50 years Apollo-Soyuz Test Project: As all interesting commemorative spaceflight related stuff moved into the moonSwatch collection, will we finally see a practical "60 seconds" bezel on a Speedmaster or on a plastic... bio-ceramic moonSwatch ? Anyway, it would be an easy fix to add an extra bezel in the current Omega Speedmaster box... Back to the facts, even two days before the launch of the historic Apollo-Soyuz Test Project spaceflight mission, NASA astronaut & ASTP PLT Vance Brand, a former US Marine Corps aviator & Lockheed test pilot, was still wearing his bespoke "60 seconds" bezel Omega Speedmaster. Brand had acquired the special NASA-issued Speedmaster as backup CMP crew member of the Apollo 15 mission in 1971 and wore it ever since during NASA training! During my spacefarers' wrist watches talk, I talk about the astronauts' request for a practical Speedmaster bezel, all data coming from a conversation with the late Alfred Worden! Coming to a GTG near You... (Photo: NASA)

NASA plane I met a few times. :)

NASA used T-38s like this to train the Space Shuttle captains how to land the shuttles. I hear they’re some of the most difficult aircraft to fly.
