The blackness of space and part of Earth's horizon form the backdrop for this 70mm frame of the free-flying SPARTAN 204 mission. Carried into space by the STS-63 crewmembers, the satellite was later re-captured by the crew and used for maneuvering evaluations by the two space walkers, astronauts Bernard Harris and Michael Foale.
