After completing his backup assignment on Apollo 16, Haise moved to the Space Shuttle Program and participated in a number of ALT flights at Edwards Air Force Base in California. Alongside pilot Gordon Fullerton, Haise commanded the Space Shuttle Enterprise in free flight to three separate landings. The tests were used to verify the shuttle's flight characteristics, an important step toward the success of the program.
