Space shuttle Challenger (Mission 41-G, photographed on 11 October, 1984), showing Astronauts Kathryn D. Sullivan, left, & David C. Leestma performing an in-space simulation of refuelling another spacecraft in orbit, working on the orbital refuelling system at the rear of the cargo hold of the spacecraft. To their left is a large format camera, & to the right the remote manipulator system (RMS) is positioned close-in, in order that the video camera attached to its wrist may record their efforts. In the left foreground is the antenna for the onboard shuttle imaging radar system (SIR-B).
