Named after the ceremonial spike that joined the transcontinental railroad across America, Golden Spike claims to have the expertise to fly expeditions to the Moon, opening up "an enduring link to the final frontier".
During the mission, the astronauts aboard Discovery also carried out various experiments aboard the Spacehab module in the Orbiter's payload bay, and took part in a live bi-directional audio and downlink video hookup between themselves and the three Cosmonauts on board Mir, Valeri Polyakov, Viktor Afanasyev and Yury Usachev (flying Mir expeditions LD-4 and EO-15).
