Mission info from and webs
STS-107 is a mission devoted to research and will include more than 80 experiments that will study Earth and space science, advanced technology development, and astronaut health and safety. The majority of the experiments will be located on Space Shuttle Columbia's middeck and in the SPACEHAB Double Research Module.
In order to perform the research, STS-107's crew will be split into two teams to allow around-the-clock operations during the 16-day flight. The Red Team consists of Commander Rick Husband and Mission Specialists Kalpana Chawla and Laurel Clark and Payload Specialist Ilan Ramon. Pilot William McCool and Mission Specialists David Brown and Michael Anderson are on the Blue Team.
