STS100-E-5239 (22 April 2001) --- Astronaut Chris A. Hadfield, STS-100 mission specialist representing the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), stands on one Canadian-built robot arm to work with another one. Called Canadarm2, the newest addition to the International Space Station (ISS) was ferried up to the orbital outpost by the STS-100 crew. Hadfield's feet are secured on a special foot restraint attached to the end of the Remote Manipulator System (RMS) arm, which represents one of the standard shuttle components for the majority of the 100-plus STS missions thus far. The picture was recorded with a digital still camera. Credit: NASA
