'''STS-4V''' was a multinational Earth-science space shuttle mission, launched July 29, 2009. The primary payload was the SPACEHAB Research Double Module and two [[Wikipedia:Extended Duration Orbiter|Extended Duration Orbiter]] pallets. The mission included two spacewalks using newly a updated version of the [[Wikipedia:Manned Maneuvering Unit|Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU)]]. The mission, which launched while [[Wikipedia:STS-127|STS-127]] and [[Wikipedia:Expedition 20|Expedition 20]] were in orbit, held a record for the most people in space at once (18) until the [[Orbital Contingency Test Flight]] launched in February of 2010.

STS-4V was a multinational Earth-science space shuttle mission, launched July 29, 2009. The primary payload was the SPACEHAB Research Double Module and two Extended Duration Orbiter pallets. The mission included two spacewalks using newly a updated version of the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU). The mission, which launched while STS-127 and Expedition 20 were in orbit, held a record for the most people in space at once (18) until the Orbital Contingency Test Flight launched in February of 2010.

Contingency mission

STS-505 was the designation given to the Contingency Shuttle Crew Support mission which would have been launched in the event Space Shuttle Terra Nova became disabled during STS-4V. Due to the inclination and other orbital parameters of the mission, Terra Nova would have been unable to use the International Space Station as a safe haven in the event of structural or mechanical failure. The mission would have been a modified version of the STS-400 rescue mission, and would have launch from Space Launch Complex 7 at Vandenberg AFB. Once in orbit, the rescue Orbiter would perform an extended TPS tile check and would link up with Terra Nova, which would grapple the Orbiter with its Remote Manipulator System (RMS). Once the crew of STS-4V was safely aboard the other Shuttle, a final transfer would take place to install a backup Remote Control Orbiter in-flight maintenance (RCO IFM) cable aboard the Terra Nova, which lacked a dedicated remote landing and control system.[1] The rescue Orbiter would land first, landing at Vandenberg on day eight to nine of STS-505. Terra Nova would remain in orbit until the rescue Orbiter was removed from the runway, at which point the decision would be made to either land at Vandenberg or to ditch the Shuttle in South Pacific Ocean, should the damage be too severe to allow a safe landing. Vandenberg would be the preferred landing site due to its location along the orbit of the Shuttle and due to its proximity to the Pacific. Should a problem develop that would make landing dangerous, the Shuttle could be remotely ditched into the ocean away from populated areas.

Notes

  1. ↑ Space Shuttle Constitution was designed to be remotely controlled from mission control or to land automatically on its own. A refit was completed for Terra Nova in late 2009 to early 2010 to allow automated landing and was used successfully during the Orbital Contingency Test Flight.
