  Title: Astronaut Jeffrey Hoffman on RMS robot arm during HST repairs
  Description:
  Astronaut Jeffrey A. Hoffman (frame center) remains secured by his feet on
  the end of the Endeavour's robot arm as he prepares to participate in the
  replacement of Hubble Space Telescope's (HST) Wide Field/Planetary Camera
  (WF/PC). Astronaut F. Story Musgrave (just in frame at lower left corner)
  assists Hoffman in removing the new camera (WF/PC2) from the Scientific
  Instrument Protective Enclosure (SIPE). Electronic still photography is
  technology which provides the means for a handheld camera to electronically
  capture and digitize an image with resolution approaching film quality.
