Columbia (OV-102)

Columbia (OV-102) was a 20th century NASA space shuttle orbiter operated by the United States of America on Earth. In April 1981, it became the first space shuttle launched into space. It was lost with all hands when the ship disintegrated on reentry in 2003. ()
While scrolling through Crewman ' 31st century database, Captain Jonathan Archer and T'Pol passed an image of Columbia with its payload bay doors open in orbit of Earth, with an accompanying message that read "To the memory of the brave astronauts of the shuttle columbia, we [...] their bravery, [...] and service." ()
Two Columbia mission patches were on display at the 602 Club in 2143, including a commemorative patch honoring the loss of the STS-107 crew. ()
