The Space Shuttle Atlantis (OV-104), at the time the youngest in NASA's shuttle fleet, made its third flight on a classified mission for the United States Department of Defense (DoD). It deployed a single satellite, USA-34. NASA archival information has identified USA-34 as Lacrosse 1, a side-looking radar, all-weather surveillance satellite for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
Atlantis' Thermal Protection System tiles sustained extensive damage during the flight. Ablative insulating material from the right-hand solid rocket booster nose cap had hit the orbiter about 85 seconds into the flight, as seen in footage of the ascent. The STS-27 crew also commented that white material was observed on the windshield at various times during the ascent. The crew made an inspection of the shuttle's impacted starboard side using the shuttle's Canadarm, but the limited resolution and range of the cameras made it impossible to determine the full extent of the tile damage.
The problem was compounded by the fact that the crew was prohibited from using their standard method of sending images to ground control due to the classified nature of the mission. The crew was forced to use a slow, encrypted transmission method, likely causing the images NASA engineers received to be of poor quality, causing them to think the damage was actually "just lights and shadows". They told the crew the damage did not look any more severe than on past missions.
One report describes the crew as "infuriated" that Mission Control Center seemed unconcerned. When Gibson saw the damage he thought to himself, "We are going to die"; he and others did not believe that the shuttle would survive reentry. Gibson advised the crew to relax because "No use dying all tensed-up", he said, but if instruments indicated that the shuttle was disintegrating, Gibson planned to "tell mission control what I thought of their analysis" in the remaining seconds before his death.

Nice interview
@@JEAN-pm9lg Thank you!
✨✨✨✨✨🤩
Hoot is such a class act. I had a conversation with him once, in which I asked, "When you went to Southwest how did the captains react to their new first officer who's last job was flying the space shuttle'? He responded, 'Well I didn't bring it up. But some were aware, and you know, a few were (jerks) but most were pretty cool about it'. Humility, in the face of ones accomplishments, is the true measure of a man. Hoot exemplifies that!
👍👍
👍👍👍
Nice little story
He's the Chuck Norris of flying. He can fly a damn bannanna!!!
Hoot, I am glad you did this video. I was in the IAC 25 back in the day and you were so very generous with us. I remember me in my Pitts and Luke in his Skybolt flying together and you came up from behind in a T 33 ( I think ) and slowed it down and flew beside us for a minute or two. Thank you for that. You also gave us a talk about flying the shuttle. You are an incredible asset to America and the blokes that you have impacted.

Great interview!! I was on the USS Coral Sea in 1972 and 1973 with then LTJG Gibson. I was flying the EKA-3B at the time and I'm sure I must have tanked LTJG Gibson in his F-4 a few times. The F-4s always needed more gas.🤠 I graduated from USN Test Pilot school in 1981 and became an Aeronautical Engineer in the Navy. Hoot Gibson is one of my heroes.
What a wonderful story. This man had an incredible life flying all those flying machines, and what a great mentor he had, his father. It was the perfect setting to dream big and achieve great things in life. I became an aerospace engineer inspired by my father too. But he was not an engineer, but he gave me airplane models and an airplanes almanac with all airplane models around the world. That put wood on my fire. My country does not have aerospace schools other than the Air Force, but I didn't want to be in the military, so I had to leave my country to pursue studies and have a career designing airplane structures.
Great interview, thanks for let us know,a real living person, a heroe of this nation. Giving him the honors that he deserves in life. Thank you Hoot.
👍👍👍
Hoot is the man, class act guy, and a truly gifted pilot.
Holy you know what!!!!! I absolutely love Hoot!! Every interview i somehow love him even more, what a cool bad*ss, I can't get enough! Lol Hoot was a copilot of a passenger jet, I can see the pilot asking" is it OK to take off sir, is it OK if I fly for a little while?"
I spent several years at PAX in the late 70's to early 80's. It was interesting to see the people who eventually got into US Naval Test Pilot School and the direction they went from there. Most people had to apply to the school multiple times before they got in. When they graduated they were assigned to a flight test squadron, but the majority of them also applied to NASA to fly the shuttle. If Test Pilot School was pretty selective NASA was even more so, very few got selected by NASA. So congratulations go out to Hoot for accomplishing this. FLY NAVY!!!
There is an concentration task with emotional controls. Congratulations pilot. . You're is more than a space cowboy you're a legend
Hoot all the love and respect i can send from a fellow sr71 pilot and "Moonfall" astronaut.....
👍🙏
Hi, my name is Les Forster. Lt. Gibson was my division officer in VF 1 when I meet him. I worked in the "powerplants" shop as a ADJ. We changed a lot of TF30 engine in those days. Made the first cruise with the F14 on board CVAN 65 Enterprise. Lt. Dave Burke lost an F14 caused by a catastrophic engine failure on that cruise. I would be thrilled to be able to meet Mr. Gibson again if that is possible. Please leave a reply & lets make that happen1 Thank you.
I always enjoyed setting up our race pit(Sawbones) when your crew was there. to this day some of us still chant "Who wears short shorts? Hoot wears short shorts!" I guess you had to be there, Hoot, you are one heck of a great guy.
👍👍👍
What an amazing life and career. I could listen to this gent tell any tale.
A new episode will be online very soon! Here is his playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLBI4gRjPKfnPZsK5m9hEalxr8GTyniBNf.html

Thank You, Mr. Gibson.
👍👍🙏
@@Dronescapes Does he tell you how he got his call sign?
Outstanding pilot and astronaut!
Thank you so much for this series. Hoot is one of the last of a very rare breed of pilot.
Our pleasure!
This man is And was so amazing in all of the aviation advances then and now and I had signed autographs from him when my dad worked for NASA/Rockwell on the space shuttle, and my mom hated my father and found out I had signed autographs that he had gotten me and she burnt and destroyed everything, but hoot has an amazing history and a great history to follow for any upcoming aviator whether it be private commercial or Government, the sky is the limit and he has not found it yet…. 🤔😉👍✈️🚀❤️🇺🇸
America has truly produced some of the most wonderful attributes in people that God could’ve ever imagined…
Excellent video on "HOOT" Gibson! My last name is also Gibson. I flew over 10,000 hrs in Canada with over 25 types of a/c. My early years as a child were in Edmonton Alberta working as a 13 year old for Mike Hackmans Aircraft Sales as the young janitor until I turned 16 at which time Mike Hackman Paid for half of my Private License with Centennial Fling Service owner Frank Elkins. I also worked for Hudson Bay Oil and Gas cleaning there DC-3 (CF-HBX) for Bill Granley, Time Airways for Stub Ross(cleaning a Beech 18 and Cessna 401 after flights every day from their schedule runs making One Dollar per day! Those were the days at the Edmonton Industrial Airport. Many stories, many memories...
Thank you for sharing. Be sure to watch the other episodes and also the upcoming ones Mr. Gibson
@@Dronescapes Absolutely...
Love every minute of this podcast
👍🙏
just partway through, had to pause to say a HUGE thank you! for posting this. Subscribed of course!
Thank you! did you watch the other episodes? there are more to come as well. Here is the playlist: ua-cam.com/play/PLBI4gRjPKfnOVJvv3n4cfJbKf3q25rml_.html
I was in VF-1 at NAS Miramar (and on The Enterprise) with Lt. Gibson in the early 1970's; he was a nice guy and a good pilot.
👍👍 thank you for your service
Just gotta say, his voice and awesome moustache makes him Ron Swanson of aviation.
Great interview!
This guy is the real life top gun Maverick but 10 times better
Which Pre-Amp are you using for the SM7B mic ?
What a life!
Twin Tail Tommy pilots with bushy mustaches is the epitome of cool. Well.....that and Crusader pilots.
Was one of the officers in the 1972 squadron photo a David Mcchallister? If so I met him years ago as he was a Dozer on the USS. Hornet Museum. I know he passed away since then.
Wow...Just wow
👍🙏
Must be a real “Drag” Dusting all
Those gorgeous model
Jets in his Hanger, Home, he probably has a really good air filtration set up to reduce dust build up on those wings . One of the greats , he would have been a real asset with Kelly Johnson and the Skunk work boys , but he had to have the shuttle , one question ? If you could go back , and see the SR71 , and the Shuttle , you think he would have chose the shuttle ?
I'm aviation fan. Nevertheless I probably know less types of aircrafts than Hoot Gibson flew :)
👍😉😎
Volaba mig 21 por diversión fue el primer astronauta gringo en estar en la estación espacial MIR.
Yes
American bad ass💪🇺🇸
With all that experience what a Hoot ... 😅 I met a chap flew f4 phantoms in Vietnam. He worked in the aviation school. Cool guy yup the navy probably has better pilots then the air force.. 😂 it's the irony. 👍 It's probably because of Better Gear to lol😂
By the reaction and what He said .Sounds like something was seen and now a nuke might be orbiting earth ? Conspiracy theory😂
The shuttle is not an airplane , it’s a flying Brick .
while he wouldn't know me, we shared the RC runway at Johnson Space center flying model airplanes...
👍👍😎
No rotary, balloons, gliders?
He mentioned flying helicopters and gliders.
He who does not look forward to the next calculated risk does not live life to the fullest.

" che può volare SU qualsiai cosa" o "che può FAR volare qualsiasi cosa "
L'italiano guys.
Vabbè che è una auto translate, ma poi lo si sente anche, esempio nel calcio, dire direttamente da commentatori che per di più pensano di star parlando " forbiti ".
Capisco e conosco le origini di codesti inglesismi, ma al solito è un modo provinciale come noi sappiamo essere per dire, in " italiano " definizioni di natura semantica differente. Altra.
ciao 🙂
You can catch mistakes on any website, form the BBC, to the New York Times. At least some Italians that do not speak English, will be able to learn something about a famous American pilot and astronaut.
Poor, wrong italian " Title Translate ".
Right translation:
" che può volare SU qualsiasi cosa" or "che può FAR volare qualsiasi cosa "
Blame Google translate. At least it allows Italian that do not know English, to get an idea of what they are watching. We are not Paramount, Apple, nor Netflix...
How the hell could this guy still need a full time job after doing everything he did! NASA you need to pay more!
Does he need a job or just enjoy his work?
I see you have no idea what having passion for something is all about and some people actually like the work they do. Sad that this is such a foreign concept for you.
@@waynewayne9693 Thats not what he said though. Having passion is one thing. I'm passionate about my hobbies. He said he "still needed a full time job" A man that gave so much of his time to our country should not "need" a full time job in my opinion. Whole different story if one is just wanted certainly out of passion for the work too.
He would have been payed at the level of a Navy Captain (O-6). NASA also has a pay scale for civilian astronauts, but active military service members can earn more through additional benefits they bring with them to NASA's astronaut corps.
