Beschreibung : Tracking while EURECA retreival. Nassau Bay, Houston post stamp. Mission Specialists G. David Low and Peter Wisoff safely secured EURECA`s dual antennas against the science satellite during the spacewalk. David Low was mounted on a foot restraint on the end of Endeavour`s robotic arm while Mission Specialist Nancy J. Sherlock positioned the arm so Low could gently push the arms against EURECA`s latch mechanisms. Payload controllers then drove the latches to secure each antenna. The five-hour, 50 minute spacewalk completed STS-57 mission`s primary goal of retrieving the EURECA science satellite.
