Description: 
 
STS-49 Endeavour, OV-105, International Telecommunications Satellite 
Organization (INTELSAT) onorbit repair and redeployment activity is  
illustrated with PLAID computer graphics.  An extravehicular mobility unit  
(EMU) suited astronaut, on the remote manipulator system (RMS) manipulator  
foot restraint (MFR), aligns capture bar to INTELSAT VI's aft side.  Once 
the  capture bar is attached to the satellite it will be lowered into 
OV-105's  payload bay (PLB) for servicing.  This view is one of a series of 
scenes  depicting the sequence of events NASA plans to unfold in the rescue 
of the  errant INTELSAT VI satellite.
