STS-109 Flight Day 2 Highlights

Footage shows the cargo bay of the Columbia Orbiter, including the rigid array carrier, the solar arrays to be installed on the Hubble Space Telescope, and the robotic arm. Close-up shots show several components of the flight support system. STS-109 Commander Scott Altman, Payload Commander John Grunsfeld, and Mission Specialist Nancy Currie are seen on the flight deck, and they answer questions about the stabilization of the freon flow, details of the upcoming rendezvous and capture of the Hubble Space Telescope, the scheduled spacewalks, and the social dynamics of the flight crew.
