Extravehicular Activity (EVA) 4 on Flight Day 7 to service the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) on this second servicing mission (HST SM-02). Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) suited astronauts Greg Harbaugh and Joe Tanner install Multi-Layer Insulation (MLI) patches near the top of the telescope. Tanner (identified by diagonal red stripes) translates down from the telescope into the payload bay using the blue-handle Translation Aid (TA); while Harbaugh's legs are in the foreground.
