  Description:
  STS-48 Mission Specialist (MS) Mark N. Brown looks away from the portable 
  laptop computer screen to pose for an Electronic Still Camera (ESC) photo
  on  the aft flight deck of the earth-orbiting Discovery, Orbiter Vehicle
  (OV)  103.  Brown was working at the payload station before the
  interruption.   Crewmembers were testing the ESC as part of Development
  Test Objective (DTO)  648, Electronic Still Photography.  The digital image
  was stored on a  removable hard disk or small optical disk, and could be
  converted to a format  suitable for downlink transmission.  The ESC is
  making its initial appearance  on this Space Shuttle mission.
