NASA used this wiring harness with the IMAX payload bay camera. It contains the power and control wires that facilitated camera operation. Perhaps the most notable use of the camera was to film the deployment of the Hubble Space Telescope during STS-31 in 1990, footage that later went on to use in the IMAX films Destiny in Space (1994) and Hubble 3D (2010).

Gift of the IMAX Corporation in 2011.
