The next flight is 41C and if you stick with that designation, you won't go wrong. This (41B) is in fact the tenth shuttle mission, but remember there were cancellations and shifting of "mission slots" that turns the STS-nn numbering system inside out. The next mission will be the eleventh shuttle flight, but it is not the original STS-11 slot (profile). I'll be glad to post what data I do have on past and future shuttle flights (at least those scheduled for calendar 1984). I tried this in the past and asked for other information to complete it, but no one ever responded helpfully. I'll see what happens this time. I also encourage others with such information to post it or mail to me and I'll include it with what I already have. It's not complete, particularly the earlier missions and upcoming ones, but some of the info I keep is: Mission designation Launch date and time Number of Earth revolutions Mission elapsed time Orbiter vehicle Crew - various pieces of data Landing site Significant mission details (accomplishments, failures, anomalies, etc.) I'll post it next week, probably.
