Survey of the TPS on the STS-115 Space Shuttle Atlantis
S115-E-05305 (10 Sept. 2006) --- While working to survey the thermal protection system on the Space Shuttle Atlantis, the orbiter boom sensor system (OBSS), attached to the remote manipulator system (RMS) arm was positioned near the shuttle's aft cabin windows. This enabled one of the STS-115 crewmembers to record this digital still image of the Canadian-built system and some of the hardware stowed in the payload bay of the shuttle, as well as the vertical stabilizer and the two orbital maneuvering system (OMS) pods.
