Astronaut spacewalks to repair Shuttle Telescope
Spacewalk. Astronaut Steven L. Smith waves his hand during an Extravehicular activity (EVA) or spacewalk during a space shuttle mission to repair the Hubble Space Telescope. Smith is seen here near the foot restraint of the Remote Manipulator System robot arm in the cargo bay of the shuttle Discovery during mission STS-82 (11-21 February 1997). This mission was the second to service the HST since its launch in 1990. During the servicing, improved instruments were added and some aging components were replaced. The shuttle also lifted the HST into a slightly higher orbit

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, Astronaut Steven L. Smith takes a moment to wave his hand while embarking on an extraordinary extravehicular activity (EVA) or spacewalk during the STS-82 mission. The purpose of this daring venture was to repair and enhance the iconic Hubble Space Telescope (HST), which had been launched into orbit in 1990. Captured near the foot restraint of the Remote Manipulator System robot arm in the cargo bay of shuttle Discovery, Smith epitomizes courage and determination as he floats weightlessly against a backdrop of infinite darkness. This image serves as a testament to mankind's unwavering spirit of exploration and our relentless pursuit of knowledge beyond Earth's boundaries. During this historic mission, crucial improvements were made to the HST's instruments, ensuring its continued ability to unravel mysteries that lie within our vast universe. Aging components were replaced with state-of-the-art technology, breathing new life into this scientific marvel. Not only did Smith and his fellow astronauts successfully complete their vital repairs, but they also elevated the HST into a slightly higher orbit using their awe-inspiring spacecraft. Their efforts have allowed humanity to continue gazing at distant galaxies with unparalleled clarity and insight. This remarkable print from Science Photo Library encapsulates both the triumphs achieved through manned spaceflight and our profound connection with outer space. It stands as a timeless reminder that we are boundless explorers reaching for new horizons amidst an ever-expanding cosmos.
