Chang-Diaz on the Canadarm2 SSRMS backdropped against Earth limb during STS-111 UF-2 EVA 1

STS111-E-5132 (9 June 2002) --- Astronaut Franklin R. Chang-Diaz, STS-111 mission specialist, anchored to the foot restraint at the end of the International Space Station�s (ISS) Canadarm2, participates in the first scheduled session of extravehicular activity (EVA) for the STS-111 mission. During the spacewalk, Chang-Diaz and Perrin attached a Power and Data Grapple Fixture onto the International Space Station�s (ISS) P6 Truss, setting the stage for the future relocation of the P6. The next major task was to remove Service Module Debris Panels from Space Shuttle Endeavour�s payload bay and attach them to their temporary location on Pressurized Mating Adapter 1 (PMA-1). The spacewalkers also removed thermal blankets to prepare the Mobile Base System (MBS) for installation onto the station�s Mobile Transporter (MT).
