CapComs Dan Brandenstein (foreground) and Terry Hart monitor STS-1 launch activities from their console in Mission Control. They are sporting the special "STS-1 Ascent CapCom Cue Tie," listing all the callouts Brandenstein would read up to the crew during the launch phase. The text was conveniently printed upside down, so that it could be read by simply glancing down. The callouts were:

  • Go At 40
  • Go At Throttle Up
  • Negative Seats
  • Go For SRB Sep
  • Evap is Go
  • Press For MECO
  • Negative Return
  • Go At 5:30
  • Single Engine Rota
  • Single Engine Press For MECO
  • Go At 8:00
  • Go For Nominal OMS 1 and APU Shutdown.
