STS-51F activities

51F-12-034 (29 July-6 Aug 1985) --- A ball of liquid floats aboard Challenger as one of the Spacelab 2 crewmembers continues the ongoing fascination of liquids in weightlessness. Coffe, grape juice, orange juice, strawberry punch and various other beverages have been formed into globules, usually by the means of plastic straws, on a number of previous Shuttle missions as well as earlier NASA spacecraft. A second crewmember photographed this closeup with a 35 mm camera.
