The Space Shuttle will carry its first scientific cargo into orbit on its second test flight. The seven experiments to be conducted during this flight - investigations related to continental geology, atmospheric chemistry, meteorology, marine biology, and plant physiology - will demonstrate the potential usefulness of the Shuttle for research in the earth and life sciences.
