Tout commence 36 semaines avant la date prévue du lancement. La mission étant définie, l'équipage réuni va préparer le vol. Le programme élaboré sera modifié si nécessaire, les éléments peuvent changer, ce qui a été le cas du STS-86, la station Mir ayant eu quelques petits problèmes, un membre d'équipage a été ajouté. Ce qui est remarquable c'est l'adaptation de l'entraînement au changement de la mission.
L'équipage final était composé de: James D. Wetherbee, Commander, Michael J. Bloomfield, Pilot, le Russe Vladimar G. Titov, (RSA) Mission Specialist, Scott E. Parazynski (2), Mission Specialist, Jean-Loup J.M. Chretien, (CNES) Mission Specialist, Wendy B. Lawrence (2), Mission Specialist, David A. Wolf (2), Mission Specialist. Wolf remplacera  C. Michael Foale à bord le la station MIR.  
NOTE: Wendy B. Lawrence était prévue remplacer C. Michael Foale à bord de MIR. Après son entraînement  la cité des étoiles, à cause de sa petite taille, 1cm en moins pour le  scaphandre russe utilisé en cas de situation de détresse dans MIR, les Russes n'ont en pas voulu. Donc David A. Wolf fut sélectionné à sa place et rejoint le groupe au cours des 6 mois. Petite anecdote, il y avait dans cet équipage 3 T., TT (too tall, trop grand pour le scaphandre russe, 2cm), Parazynski, TS (too small, trop petite), Lawrence et notre T2, national.

Ainsi tous les dimanches, TT, à savoir Scott Parazynski, rédigeait le résumé de la semaine qu'il mettait sur le WEB, on ne peut que lui tirer un grand chapeau. On y trouve donc sous la forme:

Launch - 36 Update

[animated blue rule]

[Crew announcement][NEW]L minus 36 Weeks to Launch---1/1/97: Like all web pages, this is a site-in-evolution. The orbiter crew was just announced 3 weeks ago (12/6/96), so the roles and responsibilities of the crew members are still being ironed out. The crew also had the traditional announcement party at The Outpost, a fine local establishment... Shuttle Mission Simulator (SMS) training will begin the second week in February. The crew is currently taking Single System Trainer (SST) lessons and doing other reviews in anticipation of this more complex training. 

The long-duration crew members are also due back in Houston in early January for science training along with their cosmonaut counterparts and backup crews.

Une notion non française:
La Nasa appartient au public puisque c'est une administration. Toutes les portes  lui sont ouvertes toute l'année. Certains accès sont payants, le prix du bus qui vous amène aux différents endroits, pas de tir, piste d'atterrissage... Pendant le vol lui-même, les caméras retransmettent en direct et en permanence la vie à bord de l'orbiter sur une chaîne publique. 
C'est dans cette esprit que sur le WEB, on trouve tout ce qui se rapporte au vol STS-86, la mission, l'entraînement, des photos, des films, ça appartient à tout le monde....  Certains seront peut-être déçus, il n'y a pas de paparazzi là-haut!
