    Description: The photographic and videographic documentation of the Earth during STS-46 mission has enhanced the Space Shuttle Earth Observations Project (SSEOP) database. Increasing numbers of scientists are using this database; many are downloading the imagery from our electronic database for specific scientific analyses. We believe the scientific returns of the Earth Observations photography from this mission will add to the global change databases and will contribute to the better understanding of our home planet. The use of manned space flights in understanding the global process first hand is a vital component in NASA's Mission to Planet Earth. The following are discussed along with photographs from the mission: landforms and geologic observation; environmental observations; meteorological/atmospheric observation; and oceanographic observations.

    Description: The scope of a collaborative mission involving the implementation of a tethered satellite is described. The 1991 STS-46 mission, sponsored jointly by NASA, the ESA, and the Italian Space Agency involves the deployment of a tethered satellite on a Space Shuttle Discovery flight. The concept behind the tethered satellite is described, and extensive graphic descriptions of the mission profile and specifications are presented. The payload, the European Retrievable Carrier (Eureca), is explained in terms of its features and capabilities, as well as emergency considerations. A study of atmospheric composition will be the primary objective of the satellite project.
