STS-5 activities in the Mission Operations Control Room (MOCR) in Mission Control. Robin Gubby (right) and Ray Miles of Telesat Canada look over the flight plan and view a monitor at console in the MOCR. The STS-5 crew was working on the pre-deploy preparations for the ANIK C-3 satellite being placed in space for Telsat Canada (39642), Anticipation on the faces of the personnel at the payloads console in the MOCR as they wait for the deployment of the ANIK C-3 satellite. Pictured, left to right, are Miles and Gubby of Telesat Canada and Bernie Bienstock of Hughes Aircraft Company's Space and Communications Group, builders of the satellite (39643), Flight Director John T. Cox (center at right corner) watches television from space on a large screen in the front of the MOCR.

Activities in the mission operations control room (MOCR) during STS-5 mission. Flight controllers in the Mission operations control room (MOCR) at JSC's mission control center monitor audio from the Shuttle Columbia as a scence from the cargo bay shows on the large screen at front. They are waiting for the deployment of the ANIK C-3 satellite. Ground-controlled TV on this shift is the resonsibility of Granvil A. (Al) Pennington, foreground, integrated communication systems officer (INCO) (39703), Flight Director John T. Cox (second left) and Brock R. Stone (first left) study data on the monitor at the flight director console during Day 2 of STS-5. An aft camera in the cargo bay of the Columbia provides television of the pre-deployment procedures for Telesat Canada's ANIK C-3 satellite (note image on large screen in front of MOCR) (39704), Scott Thomas, a freshman at Utah State University, watches the television monitor in front of him in the MOCR.

The Telesat Canada ANIK C-3 communications satellite rises from its protective "cradle" (obscured by another such device in the foreground) in the cargo bay of the Space Shuttle Columbia. The empty, closed shield in the cargo bay (foreground) earlier had protected Satellite Business Systems (SBS-3) satellite. Both orbital maneuvering system (OMS) pods, part of the vertical tail and part of the wing stand out in this photo. |
