The STS-78 mission was a space shuttle mission that was conducted by NASA in 1996. It was the 78th mission in the Space Shuttle program, and was launched on June 20, 1996, from Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The mission was completed on July 7, 1996, after a total of 17 days in space.
The STS-78 mission had a number of objectives, including the deployment of a satellite, the conduct of scientific experiments, and the testing of new technologies. The mission was also notable for being the first time that the space shuttle was used to conduct a long-duration mission in microgravity, with the crew spending over two weeks in space.
The STS-78 mission patch is a logo or insignia that was designed to represent the mission and its objectives. The patch typically features a design or symbol that represents the mission and its crew, and is often worn by the astronauts and other members of the mission team as a way to show their participation in the mission. The STS-78 mission patch may also be used on mission-related materials and documents, such as mission reports and presentations.
