Dispositivo rastreador de satélite


Explanation:
A tradução parece-me ser "Dispositivo rastreador de satélite". A expressão "rastreador" indica, por si só, um processo de captação, retenção, etc.

dispositivo de captura de satélites


Explanation:
A frase, a partir de "here, a satellite..." seria "...um dispositivo de captura de satélites é acoplado à extremidade do braço robótico do ônibus espacial".

Pelo contexto, acredito que o autor se refere a um tipo de garra ou manipulador, acoplado àquele enorme braço robótico do ônibus espacial para segurar satélites que devem sofrer reparos, remoção ou substituição, como foi feito no conserto do telescópio Hubble, e é feito na estação espacial internacional.
