This got lost when our netmail system went on vacation:

According to the talk overheard via the shuttle Goddard
retransmission link, it would appear that there is
an IMAX camera onboard the shuttle.  As of the
recovery of the Solar Max Satellite, they had
"shot-up 4 rolls of IMAX film" and anticipate "shooting
another 2 rolls during tomorrows repair effort."
Another roll of IMAX film was used during the repair of the
Solar Max and the sixth roll was going to be used to shoot
"earth scenes".  It appears that there was a ground crew
at Mission Control and that they moved to Kennedy to
film the landing.  Unless they had a back-up unit at
Edwards...
