ALT Graphic titled “STS-57 Memories.” On the left, a close-up photo shows a space shuttle crew member inside the shuttle cockpit wearing a headset and holding radio equipment, with control panels and cables visible in the background. The shirt reads “SAREX.” On the right, text reads: “June 21 – July 1 1993 flight of Endeavour was a SAREX mission. The Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment was carried aboard this flight, with pilot Brian Duffy (N5WQW) and mission specialist Janice Voss (KC5BTK) taking part. President Clinton commended the SAREX activities during a call with the crew in space: ‘You may be on this mission creating thousands of scientists for the future, just by the power of your example and by this direct communication.’” An ARISS logo appears at the bottom right.
