  Title: STS-48 MS Buchli, eating crackers on OV-103's middeck, is captured by ESC
  Description:
  STS-48 Mission Specialist (MS) James F. Buchli "catches" goldfish snack 
  crackers as they float in the weightless environment of the earth-orbiting 
  Discovery, Orbiter Vehicle (OV) 103.  Buchli's eating activity on the
  middeck  was documented using the Electronic Still Camera (ESC). 
  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.
