STS-75 Flight Day 2

On this second day of the STS-75 mission, the flight crew, Cmdr. Andrew Allen, Pilot Scott Horowitz, Payload Cmdr. Franklin Chang-Diaz, Payload Specialist Umberto Guidoni (Italy), and Mission Specialists Jeffrey Hoffman, Maurizio Cheli (ESA) and Claude Nicollier (ESA), are shown, via satellite-downlinking, online with Dan Golden, the Director of NASA, discussing the mission and performing system set-ups. A problem with the 'Smart Flex' computer system develops and the crew spends most of the day trying to fix the problem with the help of Mission Control. Earth views include cloud cover, various land and water masses, and Earth's Arctic regions.
