Maarten coordinates by radio with Ron in the hab, while Rob and Rick connect and start the backpack systems. |
Brent and Abby stand in the sun, warming up for their EVA experience. |
The commander finds a different perspective. |
Another photo for our Duct Tape File. Dusty and worn from two weeks of heavy use, the velcro attaching the air filter box to the backpack needed reinforcement. |
At mid-EVA, Abby and Brent are waiting for the HabCom back at MDRS to re-establish communications with Brent's agent system. |
Maarten, Rob, and Yilmaz (making good use of the backpack cover) restart the computer once more. |
The astronauts walk back, as we attempt to have the robot track Abby by absolute GPS. (Well, it started okay.) |
Bill poses for a final photograph at the end of the day. |
