.@Astro_Illini and @AstroVicGlover are getting ready for a pair of 6.5-hour spacewalks on Jan. 27 and Feb. 1 to upgrade science and communications gear on the station. More...
The station's orbit takes it as high 51.6° above the equator offering awe-inspiring views of the Earth's aurora in between the city lights and the twinkling stars.
Kenny Todd, the @NASA station deputy manager, tells @thespaceupdate what the most important upgrades are for the space station. #AskNASA |
.@MiguelTaveras_ wants to know, "How do astronauts prepare for spacewalks?" #AskNASA |
Robotics are key during a spacewalk and @Heartie1990 wants to know, "Who will be operating the robotic arm during both spacewalks?" #AskNASA |
Thanks for your #AskNASA question during today's spacewalk briefing @pretrisee, "Do you feel heat or cold during a spacewalk?"
