December 2, 1988 (Friday)[]

December 2, 1988: Launch of STS-27.
  • A cyclone in Bangladesh leaves 5 million homeless and thousands dead.[15]
  • Benazir Bhutto is sworn in as Prime Minister of Pakistan, becoming the first woman to head the government of an Islam-dominated state.[16]
  • Agreeing to the bus hijackers' demands, the Soviet government gives them $2 million and an Aeroflot Ilyushin-76 cargo plane with a crew of eight to fly it. After the plane takes off from Mineralnyye Vody, the hijackers decide to fly to Israel rather than Pakistan or Iraq, as they had intended. The plane lands at a military airstrip near Ben Gurion Airport in Lod, Israel, where the hijackers surrender. Yitzhak Rabin, the Israeli Minister of Defense, criticizes the Soviet response to the hijacking, saying, "I must admit I can't understand how they could manage to leave the Soviet Union without the Soviet authorities doing anything to prevent it."[1]
  • STS-27: At 9:30:34 a.m. Eastern Standard Time, NASA launches Space Shuttle Atlantis on a classified mission.[5][6] Unbeknownst to the five-man crew, 85 seconds after liftoff, falling insulation from one of the Solid Rocket Boosters (SRBs) severely damages the shuttle's thermal protection system.[6][7][17] A few hours later, astronaut Mike Mullane uses the shuttle's robot arm to deploy the mission's cargo, the Lacrosse 1 satellite (also known as ONYX) for the U.S. National Reconnaissance Office and the Central Intelligence Agency.[6][7][18][19] In a 2001 interview, shuttle commander Robert L. Gibson will reveal that the satellite experienced a problem after deployment which required that the shuttle rendezvous with it for the issue to be corrected. Gibson's comments and confusion over the identification of the 100th U.S. spacewalk during the STS-98 mission in February 2001 will lead to speculation that STS-27 crewmembers -- possibly astronauts Jerry L. Ross and William Shepherd -- conducted a classified spacewalk to repair the satellite.[7][18]
  • Presidential transition of George H. W. Bush: U.S. President-elect George H. W. Bush and his defeated opponent in the presidential election, Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis, hold a joint press conference.[20]

  • STS-27: Mission Control requests that the shuttle crew use Atlantis' robot arm to photograph the heat shield under the shuttle's right wing. According to his own later account, when shuttle commander Robert L. Gibson sees the tile damage on the camera monitor, he thinks, "We are going to die." Due to the classified nature of the mission, the crew is required to use an encryption technique to send video of the damage to mission control, causing ground controllers to underestimate the severity of the damage and inform the crew that it is no worse than on previous flights.[17]
  • Deputy Sheriff Donald Ray Cook of the Escambia County, Florida Sheriff's Office is struck and killed during a vehicle pursuit while manning a roadblock.[33]

Pickering as U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, despite reports that Pickering helped arrange a secret donation to the Nicaraguan Contras when he was U.S. Ambassador to El Salvador.[55][56] Pickering is only the second career diplomat ever named to the post.[56]
  • Speaking about the cancellation of the Gorbachevs' visit to Trump Tower, Donald Trump comments, "Trump Tower represents something very beautiful but also very opulent, and I had always questioned whether or not they'd be able to do it, on a political basis."[49]
  • STS-27: Space Shuttle Atlantis and its crew return safely to Earth, surviving the damage to the orbiter's heat shield and landing at Edwards Air Force Base in California at 3:36:11 p.m. Pacific Standard Time.[5] During reentry, Gibson keeps a close eye on a gauge that would indicate a developing problem, saying afterwards that this would have given him "at least 60 seconds to tell mission control what I thought of their analysis."[17] 707 of the shuttle's heat shield tiles prove to have been damaged; one tile near the shuttle's nose was completely lost, causing a metal antenna anchor plate underneath it to become partly melted during reentry.[6][17] Had the damage been in a different location, Atlantis would have been destroyed during its return to Earth, as Space Shuttle Columbia will be after sustaining similar damage in 2003.[17]
