Summary
STS-67 launched on a Lockheed Space Operations Company Space Shuttle from Launch Complex 39A, Kennedy Space Center, FL, USA on March 2, 1995. It was Lockheed Space Operations Company's 59th launch, 2nd this year and humanity's 3,970th orbital launch attempt. It was the 68th Space Shuttle flight and the 2nd this year. The payload was bound for low Earth orbit (LEO). It reached a 353 × 366 km orbit inclined 28.5°. 7 crew members flew: Stephen S. Oswald, Tamara E. Jernigan, William G. Gregory, John M. Grunsfeld, Wendy B. Lawrence, Samuel T. Durrance and Ronald A. Parise. The spacecraft was Space Shuttle Endeavour (OV-105). One object from this launch is catalogued.

Spacecraft
Space Shuttle Endeavour (OV-105)
Space Shuttle Endeavour (Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-105) is a retired orbiter from NASA's Space Shuttle program and the fifth and final operational shuttle built. It embarked on its first mission, STS-49, in May 1992 and its 25th and final mission, STS-134, in May 2011. STS-134 was expected to be the final mission of the Space Shuttle program, but with the authorization of STS-135, Atlantis became the last shuttle to fly. The United States Congress approved the construction of Endeavour in 1987 to replace Challenger, which was lost in 1986. Structural spares built during the construction of Discovery and Atlantis were used in its assembly. NASA chose, on cost grounds, to build Endeavour from spares rather than refitting Enterprise.
- Destination: Low Earth Orbit
- Mission length: 16 days
Space Shuttle Endeavour successfully landed at Edwards Air Force Base after this mission.
