On the morning of December 2, 1988 the Space Shuttle Atlantis took off from the Kennedy Space Center on what was designated as mission STS-27. The mission was top secret so not much was known about it's objectives outside of the deployment of a satellite. During the launch, something happened to the spaceship that nearly resulted in it's demise. That, along with a secret spacewalk make this a mission for the record books. This is the story of that mission.
