Summary

The original finding aid described this as:

Description: Mission Specialist (MS) Peterson, wearing extravehicular mobility unit (EMU) and designated EV2, and MS Musgrave, EV1, adjust winch rope/cable routing to Airborne Support Equipment (ASE) aft tilt frame actuator (AFTA) table tube assembly (on AFTA port side). During Inertial Upper Stage (IUS) ASE Contingency Extravehicular Activity (EVA) Operations in aft payload bay (PLB), ASE forward frame, umbilical boom, and ASE aft frame appear in the foreground and orbital maneuvering system (OMS) pods and vertical tail in the background.
