About this work
In the slidewire basket on Launch Pad 39B, STS-103 Mission Specialists Jean-François Clervoy of France (left) and Steven L. Smith take a break to pose for the photographer. The baskets are part of the emergency egress system for persons in the Shuttle vehicle or on the Rotating Service Structure. Seven slidewires extend from the orbiter access arm, with a netted, flatbottom basket suspended from each wire.
