A series of investigations was carried out during the First Spacelab Mission to study the space plasma environment from the Shuttle/Spacelab. The emphasis of the experiments was on the performance of particle injections from the Shuttle/Spacelab and studies of the ensuing effects on the orbiter, the near orbiter environment, and the earth's atmosphere. Results of these experiments, including electron beam injections, plasma injections, neutral injections, electron-plasma injections, electron-neutral injections, and ambient environmental measurements, are reviewed.
