On this week in history a truly historic event for space travel.
The very first space shuttle launched and returned to Earth.
Space Shuttle Columbia blasted off on April 12, 1981 with a two-man crew on board and returned just about 54 hours later, on April 14, 1981.
In that time Columbia orbited the earth 36 times.
This 100 Years in History moment is brought to you by Riverton Chevy - celebrating 100 Years of Service.
