HST, deployment of the telescope on Flight Day 9
STS082-708-045 (11-21 Feb. 1997) --- Backdropped against the darkness of space, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) begins its separation from the Space Shuttle Discovery following its release from Discovery's cargo bay. This is the first in a series of post-release views recorded on 70mm film by the crew members. Five Extravehicular Activities (EVA) were performed by two pairs of astronauts who alternated days of EVA to service the giant orbiting observatory.
