Retired Canadian Space Agency astronaut Marc Garneau describes the time he picked up a spinning satellite in space known as Spartan 207. Garneau retrieved the satellite in May 1996 during space shuttle mission STS-77, using the Canadarm. Garneau was speaking to Space.com on the 40th anniversary of his first spaceflight, also Canada's first, in 1984.
