Flight

Launch from Cape Canaveral (KSC); landing on Edwards AFB.

Primary payload ASTRO-1 observatory with four telescopes (HUT, WUPPE, UIT and BBXRT); some problems during the mission (loss of both data display units), so only 70% of planned science data achieved; mission cut short one day due to impending bad weather at primary landing site.
