🚀 Astronaut Catches Satellite in Space! 🚀
In this iconic 1984 photo from the Space Shuttle Discovery, astronaut Dale Allan Gardner captured the stranded satellite Westar 6. Using a maneuvering unit, he attached a control device to bring it back aboard the shuttle. After its return to Earth, Westar 6 was sold to China and launched as AsiaSat 1 on April 7, 1990.
