(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronaut Gregory J. Harbaugh, mission specialist, floats horizontally in the cargo bay of the Earth-orbiting Space Shuttle Discovery, backdropped against its giant temporary passenger, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Harbaugh, sharing this space walking activity with astronaut Joseph R. Tanner (out of frame), is actually recognizable through his helmet visor in the 70mm frame. He is near the Second Axial Carrier (SAC), Axial Scientific Instrument Protection Enclosure (ASIPE). STS-82 marked the first flight of the exit airlock, partially visible at bottom edge of photo.

RM2C6N4XH–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronaut Steven A. Hawley, who spent many hours aboard Discovery controlling the shuttle's Remote Manipulator System (RMS), watches the Extravehicular Activity (EVA) of a two-man space walking team from Discovery's aft flight deck. Hawley had flown on the 1990 mission that was responsible for deploying the orbiting observatory.

RM2C6N50T–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronaut Mark C. Lee, standing on the end of the Remote Manipulator System (RMS), works at the data interface unit on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), temporarily captured in the cargo bay of the Earth-orbiting the Space Shuttle Discovery.

RM2BYX13C–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronaut Scott J. Horowitz mans the pilot's station of the Space Shuttle Discovery. As well as serving as pilot for NASA's second mission to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), Horowitz was instrumental in the crafting of patch pieces to cover worn insulation on the giant telescopes surface. This view was taken with an Electronic Still Camera (ESC).

RM2BYWKW3–(11 -21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronaut Joseph R. Tanner, one half of a space walk team on mission STS-82 to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), watches the Extravehicular Activity (EVA) of another team from Discovery's aft flight deck. Through Discovery's overhead window, lakes and a timber area appear almost close enough for Tanner to touch

RM2C6N4YE–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- On Discovery's middeck, astronaut Scott J. Horowitz, STS-82 pilot, works on one of the multi-layer insulation (MLI) patches to be used by two crew mates on an upcoming space walk to repair worn insulation on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST).

RM2C6N4Y9–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Attired in the Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit, astronaut Mark C. Lee, payload commander, is in the airlock Discovery preparing for one of five STS-82 space walks. The sessions of extravehicular activity (EVA), of which Lee eventually participated in three, were conducted in order to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), temporarily latched in Discovery's payload bay.

RM2C6N51J–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Astronauts Mark C. Lee, STS-82 payload commander, (bottom), and Steven L. Smith, mission specialist, handle Hubble Space Telescope (HST) replacement parts during Extravehicular Activity (EVA) on Flight Day 4. The two were participating in the first of five eventual days of EVA to service the giant orbital observatory. Smith is standing on the end of the Remote Manipulator System (RMS) arm, which was controlled by astronaut Steven A. Hawley inside the Space Shuttle Discovery's crew cabin.

RM2C6ND8G–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- The STS-82 crew poses for a traditional in-flight portrait following completion of five Extravehicular Activities (EVA) to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). Both the sign held by the crew and the assortment of apparel pay tribute to the HST and its team of ground supporters. In front, left to right, are astronauts Joseph R. Tanner, Mark C. Lee and Gregory J. Harbaugh. Behind them, left to right, are astronauts Steven A. Hawley, Kenneth D. Bowersox and Scott J. Horowitz. At the very back is astronaut Steven L. Smith. Each astronaut is wearing a shirt bearing a

RM2BYWKW5–STS082-344-018 (11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Attired in the Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) space suit, astronaut Steven L. Smith, mission specialist, is in the airlock of Discovery preparing for one of five STS-82 spacewalks. The sessions of extravehicular activity (EVA), of which Smith eventually participated in three, were conducted in order to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), temporarily latched in Discovery's payload bay.

RM2C6N50W–(11-21 Feb. 1997) --- As photographed from inside the Space Shuttle Discovery's crew cabin, astronauts Steven L. Smith (left) and Mark C. Lee (red stripe) inspect insulation around Bay 10 of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) during one of five days of extravehicular activities (EVA) designed to service the HST. Lee, payload commander, and Smith, performed three of the five EVA's which eventually were carried out on the mission.
