I don't think it's on the space shuttle, but I came *really* *close*
to using Netbsd on a ground support computer for the USMP2 flight
in early March.  It got DOS installed on it two days before the
launch so that it would be exactly like the four DOS-based X 
terminals we were using.

I actually have a user running Netbsd for the purpose of post-flight
data analysis.
