I decided to go for a long haul mission with saves and resumes to go through all the nominal operations that we can accomplish with the Shuttle.
Seeing the last screens from EatDirt and Thorsten, I wanted to go high both in inclination and in altitude, at the limits of what would have been the Vandenberg Department of Defense missions.
I chosed to try to replicate STS 62 - A, which would have been the first Polar Mission from Vandenberg in 1986.
Part 1: A tough journey began with thorough preparations

Bay Area-based company Intuitive Machines has selected SpaceX as the company that will deliver two of its payloads to the moon, according to a Jan. 13 press release.
There are five awarded Commercial Lunar Payload Services missions to the lunar surface over the next three years. Intuitive Machines has two of the missions, and both will be launched by SpaceX, the release states.
Intuitive Machines is developing Nova-C, a lunar lander that is on track to launch in the fourth quarter of 2021, according to a company spokesperson. A second mission is said to be already scheduled for 2022. Nova-C will deliver NASA payloads to the lunar surface, and the scientific data Nova-C gathers during its 13.5 days of life on the moon will help NASA in its mission to land humans on the moon as early as 2024, the first time since the 1970s.
