Created for the placement of satellite and modules of the international space station in orbit, the space shuttle also allowed the repair of ailing satellites.  Here, two astronauts are repairing the"Solar Maximum Mission Satellite (SMMS)"  after having captured and holding it using the articulated arm of the space shuttle. 

We are in 1984 and it is one of the first "space mechanic " missions for mankind, made ​​possible through the transformation of the cargo bay of the Space Shuttle into a Space Toolkit.

On the upper part of the picture we see Earth above the heads of the astronauts and the imposing front of the space shuttle.

Vintage chromogenic print on Kodak paper with NASA caption on the front and reverse. Negative reference number  #41C371711 in red in the margin. Dimensions : 25,4 x 20,3cm.
