Image Caption: STS-49 crewmembers complete successful capture of the International Telecommunications Organization Satellite (INTELSAT) VI during their third extravehicular activity (EVA) into Endeavour's, Orbiter Vehicle (OV) 105's, payload bay (PLB). Left to right Mission Specialist (MS) Richard J. Hieb, MS Thomas D. Akers, and MS Pierre J. Thuot, positioned on the remote manipulator system (RMS), have handholds on the satellite and prepare to attach capture bar (tethered to Hieb). Mexico is seen on the Earth below including an area from Hermosillo, Sonara to Los Mochis in the state of Sinaloa. In the foreground is the Assembly of Station by EVA Methods (ASEM) multipurpose experiment support structure (MPESS). Behind the three astronauts is the vertical perigee stage which will be attached to the INTELSAT VI prior to its release from the PLB.
