From the roof of the Launch Control Center, U.S. President Bill Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton track the plume and successful launch of Space Shuttle Discovery on mission STS-95 on October 29, 1998. This was the first launch of a Space Shuttle to be viewed by president Clinton or any U.S. president to date. They attended the launch to witness the return to space of John Glenn, a Payload Specialist on the mission and one of the original seven Project Mercury astronauts.
