Spacewalk. Astronaut Steven L. Smith performing an extravehicular activity
Spacewalk. Astronaut Steven L. Smith performing an extravehicular activity (EVA or spacewalk). He is tethered to the end of the space shuttles robotic arm or remote manipulator system (RMS). Smith is retrieving a power tool which has been specially made for the servicing of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The photograph was taken from the space shuttle Discovery during mission STS-103 (19-27 December 1999). During this mission the HSTs computer, gyroscopes and tape recorder were all replaced. Also replaced was one of the HSTs Fine Guidance Systems (FGSs) which allows the telescope to locate and view its targets
