The astronauts manning the space shuttle Endeavor, on mission STS-126, perform the first spacewalk and are forced to share tools after a bag containing tools to repair the bearing that directs the solar collector drifts into space (update: the spacewalk ended at three in the morning)
Update: The first, somewhat problematic spacewalk of mission STS-126 ended this morning around three o'clock.
00:22
Astronaut Heidi-Marie Stephensin-Pfeiffer resumed her work on renewing and lubricating the bearing of the drive system that adjusts one of the station's solar collectors after a malfunction. Piper reported that one of the grease gun frames released grease into her toolbox. As she cleaned the bag and wiped the tools and equipment inside, the bag floated away from her. The incident happened this evening around 22:33 Israel time.
Piper now uses another bag that carried the same equipment inside, which is in the hands of her spacewalk partner, Steve Bowen. NASA estimates that the two have enough tools and materials to enable the task of renewing and lubricating the bearing.
Piper and Bowen are working outside the spacecraft today for the first of four planned spacewalks. Their task includes replacing the nitrogen tank, assisting in the task of assembling the station and starting the process of cleaning and lubricating the drive system of the Alpha solar collector. The two left for the spacewalk around nine o'clock in the evening, and it is supposed to last about six and a half hours.

I hope you find a cure for Tourette's syndrome soon and you too find relief.

You said and now you are satisfied
A bunch of arrogant and sexists!
Demeaning women, narrow-minded, primitive minds.
As long as we don't reach aliens with such psychologically understood mental illnesses.
If you are married, my condolences and participation in grief for your wives is such a fragrance that emanates from you.
If you are not married, please consider never marrying in order to help and eradicate these diseases by setting a personal example - literally destroy yourself in the tent of physics.

All day long only yabadahbadoyi
If I were a rich man.
I know the Chinese astronaut. He was a laborer for one Yehuda Sabdarmish from Gedera. That Yehuda did not pay him, so he stole a toolbox from him.
In China they use shekels?, I didn't know.
: )
to heritage,
Another option - look at the price tag: with this $300,000 listed
of NASA. If it says 1/2 shekel then it fell from the Chinese spaceship.

It's really simple!
We only need to check at what depth the screwdriver is stuck in the ground, and with a simple calculation based on our favorite gravity formula, we will get the approximate height from which the screwdriver started.
In addition, if it says - "Property of NASA, belongs to Astronaut Aidy", then it is really suspicious.
Good night heritage and hope I helped

Just this morning I found a screwdriver on the street. Could there be a connection?
Can anyone check this?
Invite her to my garage to learn how to clean grease..
Candle-white. Even (sane) girls don't wipe and dry dishes while diving,
But here we are talking about an astronaut (real, literally) Germany (ie: Yakit) -
And not by diving in the murky waters of the toilet known as the "Mediterranean Sea".
Two notes:
1. Instead of writing: Aidy-Marie Stephenshin-Piper Long
It can be abbreviated to: AMSTAF.
2. Known for the excessive fondness of many women for excessive cleanliness. Now it has been proven that this feature is sometimes unnecessary.
3. When I was a diver, many years ago, in my youth, we, the divers, used to tie all the items we carried on our bodies to our bodies with a woven, thin and strong nylon thread
And we would devote many hours to the work of preparation and tying, and even a lot of thought, how to do it in a way that would not interfere with our activities under the water. At the same time, I admit that we did not deal with wiping and cleaning the dishes during the dive. Maybe because we weren't girls.
Nice 🙂
I have a small article in science about similar cases in the past -

There is something in your words, little brother, and she really should tie her pants with string!
Good night, and with a smile

Isn't it easier to secure with a wire?
Just make sure Mrs. Heidi doesn't lose her pants.
But, remember my article about RekZ - a tiny cosmological robot?, if they had one, they could send it after the loss and bring it back.
With all the investments in space, couldn't they develop some kind of nano-robot like this?
Good Day
