I know this question was answered a while back, but I forgot to save it. How
does one decode the names of the shuttle missions? For example, one was called
"STS 41-G"--I believe the 4 means 1984, 1 means Canaveral was the launch site,
and the lettering is sequential through the year. But I thought there was also
a digit/letter telling which orbiter was used.
Help? (By e-mail, please--I'll summarize to the net.)
