Electronic Still Camera view of Aft end of Wide Field/Planetary Camera in HST

S61-E-015 (6 Dec 1993) --- A close-up view of the aft part of the new Wide Field/Planetary Camera (WFPC-II) installed on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). WFPC-II was photographed with the Electronic Still Camera (ESC) from inside Endeavour's cabin as astronauts F. Story Musgrave and Jeffrey A. Hoffman moved it from its stowage position onto the giant telescope. Electronic still photography is a relatively new technology which provides the means for a handheld camera to electronically capture and digitize an image with resolution approaching film quality. The electronic still camera has flown as an experiment on several other shuttle missions.
