The '''Space Shuttle Discovery''' was the third American [[Space shuttle]] orbiter. Discovery is named for two famous sailing ships; one sailed by [[Henry Hudson]] in 1610-11 to search for a northwest passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and the other by [[James Cook]] on a voyage during which he discovered the Hawaiian Islands. Discovery's first flight was on August 30, 1984 and has flown over 30 flights, making it the most travelled shuttle. <ref> http://www.nasa.gov/centers/kennedy/shuttleoperations/orbiters/discovery-info.html</ref>
