The STS-7 crew greet NASA Dryden employees and visitors following Challenger's landing on June 24, 1983. The crew included (from left) mission specialists Norm Thagard, John Fabian, and Sally Ride; pilot Rick Hauck; and commander Bob Crippen. Behind Crippen is former lifting body pilot John Manke, director of the Dryden Flight Research Center at the time. The Air Force officer and NASA official at the right are unidentified.

Very nice post-flight image of the crew there 34 years ago. In honor of Dr. Ride.
