Commander Eileen Collins, Pilot Jeff Ashby, and Mission Specialists Cady Coleman, Steve Hawley and Michael Tognini were awakened with the song "Brave New Girls" performed by Teresa. Steve Hawley, the resident astronomer, continued to work with the Southwest Ultraviolet Imaging System (SWUIS) and collected images of targets associated with Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and the Moon. Collins and Ashby maneuvered Columbia in support of various experiments including observations made with the SWUIS telescope or the Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX), which used sophisticated sensors to collect ultraviolet, infrared, and visible light data of firings of the shuttle's orbital maneuvering system engines or primary reaction control system jets. Collins also conducted a conversation with students at the Harbor View Elementary School in Corona Del Mar, California using the Shuttle Amatuer Radio Experiment (SAREX) system. She also checked experiments associated with the Cell Culture Module (CCM) and the Biological Research in Canister (BRIC) payloads.
