Shuttle Showcase: STS-49
About this film
Everyone knew the maiden flight of Endeavour, the successor to the fallen Challenger, would be challenging. In the end, it turned out to be that, and more, as the crew ultimately made history. Rick Heib, Pierre Thuot and Tom Akers salvaged the rescue of the crippled Intelsat satellite, performing the first, and to date, the only three-person spacewalk to manually capture Intelsat.
