HST, full length views of telescope in payload bay after capture and berthing
Summary
Full length views of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) -V3 side on this second servicing mission (HST SM-02). The solar arrays are turned vertical to the camera's perspective and glow with gold colors when the sun sets low over the Earth limb. A nice backdrop of the Earth limb and terminator line is behind the telescope in several shots. Solar arrays illuminated from the front (little color) (004-13) and illuminated from behind (gold colored) (014-96). Frames 020-22, 045-46 are unusable due to shuttle failure. View STS082-703-077 was selected by the crew to be used in the postflight presentation.
