Description:
STS-45 Atlantis, Orbiter Vehicle (OV) 104, Mission Specialist (MS) C. Michael Foale, fully suited in an extravehicular mobility unit (EMU), stands on a platform which will lower him into the nearby pool for an underwater simulation of contingency extravehicular activity (EVA) procedures. The pool is located in JSC's Weightless Environment Training Facility (WETF) Bldg 29. Weights are added around Foale's ankles so he will be neutrally buoyant during the simulation.
