In Spacelab – Ulf Merbold
Ten days, seven hours and 47 minutes – this was the duration of Ulf Merbold's first experience in space, which began on 28 November 1983 when the Space Shuttle Columbia delivered him to Earth orbit. He was selected for the Spacelab 1 mission by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the European Space Agency (ESA).
