Title
Astronaut Owen Garriott Performs EVA During Skylab 3
Full Description
Scientist-astronaut Owen K. Garriott, Skylab 3 science pilot, is
seen performing an extravehicular activity at the Apollo Telescope
Mount (ATM) of the Skylab space station cluster in Earth orbit,
photographed with a hand- held 70mm Hasselblad camera. Garriott had
just deployed the Skylab Particle Collection S149 Experiment. The
experiment is mounted on one of the ATM solar panels. The purpose of
the S149 experiment was to collect material from interplanetary dust
particles on prepared surfaces suitable for studying their impact
phenomena. Earlier during the EVA Garriott assisted astronaut Jack
R. Lousma, Skylab 3 pilot, in deploying the twin pole solar shield.
