  Title: STS-49 MS Thuot poses in OV-105's airlock for DTO 648 ESC image capture
  Description:
  STS-49 Mission Specialist (MS) Pierre J. Thuot looks up from his checkout 
  procedures in the airlock of Endeavour, Orbiter Vehicle (OV) 105, to have 
  his picture taken for Development Test Objective (DTO) 648, Electronic
  Still  Photography Test (With Downlink).  Thuot, inspecting an
  extravehicular  mobility unit (EMU) component, was recorded by the
  Electronic Still Camera  (ESC).  Electronic still photography is a new
  technology which provides the  means for a handheld camera to
  electronically capture and digitize an image  with resolution approaching
  film quality.  DTO 648 will determine camera  response to the photographic
  conditions encountered onorbit using a variety  of lenses and camera
  settings.
