Explanation:
High above planet Earth, a human helps an ailing machine.
The machine, in this potentially touching story, is the
Hubble Space Telescope,
which is not in the picture.
The
human is
Astronaut Steven L. Smith, and he is
seen above retrieving a
power
tool from the handrail of the Remote Manipulator System before resuming
work on HST in 1999 December.
For most astronauts, space is not a place for relaxation and
vacation,
but rather a place for hard work.
Since many space missions involve costly equipment and complicated experiments,
astronauts are usually people of
considerable knowledge and training.
Although the hours may be long and work may be taxing,
one frequently reported perk of
working in space is the
spectacular view.
