spacewalk, where it’s maintenance and exchange of things there?
Right. It’s maintenance outside, we’re going to be installing an Elektron nozzle; we’re going to be deploying some payloads; we’re going to be retrieving a couple of payloads; and it will be out of the Russian segment in Russian Orlan spacesuits. As someone who has done a spacewalk in an American spacesuit before, tell me a little about the differences between the operation in a U.S. spacesuit versus a Russian spacesuit. The suits are designed differently. They operate at different pressures; the Russian suit operates at a slightly higher pressure than the, than the U.S. suit. The U.S. suit is a little more tailor-made, if you will. We have custom gloves as opposed to a-couple-of-sizes fit-all. The Orlan suit, on the other hand, is a little easier to get in and out of. It doesn’t take very long. Because it operates at a higher pressure the EVA preparation time is not quite as long. Two spacesuits are deployed out of two separate airlocks from the space station. The NASA EMUs go out of
