Reviewed individual mission infobox, actual crew, backup and support crew sections, named payload examples, NASA primary mission clock/site record and location coordinates. Actual flight, backup and ground support roles remain distinct. No orbital or lunar event is assigned an Earth anchor.
Mission-control shift rosters and the complete experiment-contributor network are not exhaustively covered. Source clock discrepancies are stated in the individual chart qualification.
Wikipedia’s End date text template deliberately advances hidden dtend to the next unit boundary. A hidden end boundary is not an independent observed landing clock; visible clock disagreements and primary-source timing gaps remain separately qualified.
Coverage describes the cited sections reviewed for this record.

Earth launch as recorded in the reviewed NASA clock source. NASA records actual launch 11:37:00 EDT from 39B and landing 09:37:11 PDT, agreeing with Wikipedia’s visible clocks. The hidden end-date value is a next-unit boundary rather than another observed clock, so the explicit NASA clock is retained. This is the flown 1988 return-to-flight mission, not a cancelled earlier assignment using the same number.
