This document was compiled to provide selected highlights of the science and engineering payloads, experiments, engineering and scientific tests, and other technical activities that were carried out during the Space Shuttle era. It is very important to note that this TM highlights selected payloads and experiments to offer glimpses into the intensive scientific and engineering initiatives throughout the Space Shuttle Program. While this document is quite detailed and highly informative, it is neither comprehensive nor encyclopedic. The intention is to give readers an overview of the shuttle science and engineering payloads. In addition, selected personal observations were provided by a handful of astronauts. The data on the Space Shuttle flights highlighted in this document are in chronological order by date(s) of the mission. The summaries are high-level descriptions of the experiments/engineering tests, etc.
