STS-1
Sign in to saveSTS-1 (Space Transportation System-1) was the first orbital spaceflight of NASA's Space Shuttle program. The first orbiter, Columbia, launched on April 12, 1981, and returned on April 14, 1981, 54.5 hours later, having orbited the Earth 37 times. Columbia carried a crew of two—commander John W. Young and pilot Robert L. Crippen. It was the first American crewed space flight since the Apollo–Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) in 1975. STS-1 was also the maiden test flight of a new American spacecraft to carry a crew, though it was preceded by atmospheric testing (ALT) of the orbiter and ground testing o

STS-1 (Space Transportation System-1) 是历史上第一次航天飞机任务，于1981年4月12日发射。在这次54.5小时的任务中，哥伦比亚号航天飞机环绕地球36周。STS-1还是1975年7月的阿波罗-联盟测试计划之后的第一次美国太空任务。STS-1是美国目前唯一一次在一种新的航天系统第一次发射就进行载人实验的任务。 是次发射是在首次载人航天飞行（苏联发射的东方1号）20周年之际进行的。这是一个巧合而非纪念，是因技术问题而无法按计划提前两天发射。
