STS072-722-069 - STS-072 - Payload bay activity during second EVA of STS-72 mission

The original finding aid described this as:

Description: Sunrise over the earth limb gradually illuminates the payload bay, Mission Specialist Leroy Chiao (EV1), and Mission Specialist Winston Scott (EV3) remove and stow Portable Work Platform (PWP) hardware from RMS; the sun glares directly into camera. These views were taken with a 35mm lens on the Hasselblad camera to give a fisheye effect. The remote manipulator system (RMS) is raised above the payload bay. Both the Japanese Space Flyer Unit (SFU) and the Office of Aeronautics and Space Technology-Flyer (OAST-Flyer) are berthed in the payload bay. The earth limb provides a backdrop.
