Space Shuttle and un-manned satellites

	Space Shuttle and un-manned satellites (both appearing together)

This page contains philatelic information on the Space Shuttle and un-manned satellites. Catalog numbers, years of issue, and notes on the satellites featured are given when available. If readers know of additional information or images, please contact the authors using the e-mail addresses at the bottom of this page.

This page contains only postal items on which both the Space Shuttle and at least one un-manned satellite appear together on the same item. Their appearance together must be on a single stamp or on a souvenir sheet containing only one stamp. For each item listed below, STS-related satellites are separated from those with an implied relationship to the Space Shuttle, but that are not directly related to the Space Shuttle. (When the Space Shuttle and an un-manned satellite appear on separate stamps of a souvenir sheet or strip of more than one stamp, their appearance together does not necessarily imply that the Space Shuttle and un-manned satellite are related. Therefore, those items are excluded.) A master list of un-manned satellites including acronyms and full names is available.

This page does not include any of the International Space Station (ISS) modules or construction equipment, or any of the manned-only aspects of Space Shuttle missions.

For additional examples of unknown-identity or fantasy-design satellites, those not launched by the Space Shuttle, see the unknown-identity, fantasy-design, or canceled satellites page.

Launch information (found elsewhere)	Launch covers (including anniversary-of-launch covers, and launch-related event covers) (farther below)	Other postal items (stamps, souvenir sheets, aerogrammes, postal cards, etc.) (immediately below)

^*These last two columns are used to separate the un-manned satellites that appear together with the Space Shuttle (on the postal item) into two groups: those that are STS-related and those that are not STS-related.

¹As incorrectly noted on this item, the Space Shuttle Endeavour mission of 11 February 2000 (STS-99) had nothing to do with HST.
²The captions on Micronesia 344p and 344q are transposed: SMM repair (STS-41C), and Explorer-59/ISEE-3/ICE.
³COBE (early-design) was intended for Space Shuttle launch; COBE (final-design) was intended for rocket launch.
⁴A fantasy-design telescope somewhat similar to Chandra/CXO/AXAF is shown in an early-design stage, most likely due to the pre-launch date of these items, when the design was not finalized. A good example of this satellite is found on Chad 435.
⁵The solar panels on this satellite are not identical to those on Symphonie.
⁶Two Space Shuttle missions are merged on Central Africa 761a: Palapa-B2 (on stamp) was recovered by Space Shuttle Discovery (STS-51A); SMM (in right margin) was repaired by Space Shuttle Challenger (STS-41C).
⁷ESA's never-built Hermes space plane has an appearance somewhat like the Space Shuttle.
⁸A fantasy-design telescope reminiscent of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), but the spacecraft body is too short, and the solar panels are too wide and not long enough. A good example of this satellite is found on Chad None essay (198?)
⁹A fantasy-design satellite which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Mauritania C204.
¹⁰Payloads, as opposed to satellites, are neither deployed from, nor recovered to, the Space Shuttle cargo bay.
¹¹A cylindrical fantasy-design satellite (with booster attached) which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Central African Republic C208.
¹²A quasi-cylindrical fantasy-design satellite (with booster attached) which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Togo C327.
¹³A quasi-cylindrical fantasy-design satellite (with booster attached) which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Ivory Coast 587.
¹⁴The depiction of an ATN-type NOAA satellite with the Space Shuttle and its manipulator arm is not correct, since those satellites were all rocket-launched and neither deployed nor repaired by the Space Shuttle. This depiction of the satellite being held by the Canadarm is found on USA cover (1978), USA cover1 (1983), and USA cover2 (1983).

Below is a list of Space Shuttle and un-manned satellite launch covers (including anniversary-of-launch covers, and launch-related event covers).

Unlike most of our web pages, no attempt is made to be complete in this covers section!

¹Payloads, as opposed to satellites, are neither deployed from, nor recovered to, the Space Shuttle cargo bay.
²On these covers, the Space Shuttle mission is not specifically noted.
³There is disagreement among various sources on whether this should be called Telstar-3D or Telstar-3B! See Boeing's Telstar-3 - AT&T's Advanced New Communications Satellite.
⁴A fantasy-design telescope somewhat similar to Chandra / CXO / AXAF is shown in an early-design stage, most likely due to the pre-launch date of these items, when the design was not finalized. A good example of this satellite is found on Chad 435.
⁵HST "repair" missions 1 — 5 were officially known as Service Missions (SM) 1, 2, 3A, 3B, and 4, respectively.
⁶OSTA: Office of Space and Terrestrial Applications
⁷The Mesoscale Lightning Experiment (MLE) was designed to obtain nighttime images of lightning in an attempt to better understand the effects of lightning discharges on each other, on nearby storm systems, on storm microbursts and wind patterns, and other interrelationships over an extremely large geographical area. The MLE employed payload bay color video cameras and a 35 mm handheld still picture camera to observe lightning discharges at night from active storms.
⁸A fantasy-design telescope reminiscent of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), but the spacecraft body is too short, and the solar panels are too wide and not long enough. A good example of this satellite is found on Chad None essay (198?)
⁹A fantasy-design satellite which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Mauritania C204.
¹⁰See https://directory.eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/s/ssbuv for a list of all the Shuttle missions that included SSBUV ozone observations along with the various satellites that made coincident ozone observations.
¹¹A cylindrical fantasy-design satellite (with booster attached) which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Central African Republic C208.
¹²A quasi-cylindrical fantasy-design satellite (with booster attached) which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Togo C327.
¹³A quasi-cylindrical fantasy-design satellite (with booster attached) which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Ivory Coast 587.

¹⁵An irregular-shape fantasy-design satellite which does not represent any known satellite. A good example of this satellite is found on Niger C308.
¹⁶CRISTA-SPAS-1 was deployed by STS-66 on day two of its mission. Flying at distance of about 40-70 km behind the shuttle, it collected data for eight days and then was retrieved and returned to the cargo bay. The CRISTA instrument gathered the first global information about medium- and small- scale disturbances in trace gases in the middle atmosphere which were later used in models of the atmosphere and Earth's energy balance. The complementary CRISTA-SPAS instrument, the Middle Atmosphere High Resolution Spectrograph Investigation (MAHRSI), measured the amounts of ozone-destroying hydroxyl and nitric oxide in the middle atmosphere and lower thermosphere at altitudes in the range of 40-120 km. MAHRSI yielded the first complete global maps of hydroxyl in the atmosphere. The CRISTA-SPAS-2 payload included three telescopes and four spectrometers. It was deployed on day one of the STS-85 mission to gather data about Earth's middle atmosphere. After more than 200 hours of free flight, CRISTA-SPAS-2 was retrieved by the shuttle on 16 August 1997. The three CRISTA telescopes collected 38 full atmospheric profiles of the middle atmosphere. The complementary instrument (the MAHRSI) provided observations similar to those obtained during the flight of CRISTA-SPAS-1 concerning the distribution of ozone in Earth's atmosphere. 22 sounding rockets and 40 balloons were launched from the ground to provide correlating data for CRISTA-SPAS-2. Some similar ground-based missions also took place during the flight of CRISTA-SPAS-1. Here is one example.
¹⁷After being deployed from the Shuttle, TDRS-1 did not attain its planned geosynchronous orbit because of the failure of one of its two solid rocket booster motors. However, during the following three months, ground controllers were able to use the satellite's attitude control thrusters to raise it to the desired orbit. TDRS-1 had a design lifetime of 7 years, but served faithfully for 26 years before being retired in October 2009!
