[sci.space.shuttle] Shuttle Manifest: Here it is!!

lyang@sun.uucp (Larry Yang) (11/21/86)

Here is the shuttle manifest that you've all be waiting for.
As someone suggested, thus is just a first cut at the
schedule; we have to wait a few more rounds as the more
influential payloads jostle for better positions.

Payload Acronym List:
--------------------

ASTRO:	Ultraviolet Astronomy Telescope
ATLAS:	Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science
COFS:	Control of Flexible Structures
EOS:	Electrophoresis Operations in Space
GPS:	Global Positioning System
IML:	International Microgravity Laboratory
MSL:	Materials Science Laboratory
SHARE:	Space Station Heatpipe Advanced Radiator Experiment
SLS:	Space Life Sciences Laboratory
SSBUV:	Shuttle Solar Backscatter Ultra-Violet Instrument
TSS:	Tethered Satellite System

DOD:	Department of Defense classified payload:  Note the information
	on these payloads is unavailable.
