Astronauts are Smart, Brave and...Clumsy?
Yes, seems walking on the Moon will challenge even those with the Right Stuff. This video is comprised of some of the lesser played clips from the Apollo missions.
Remember this next time you do something like accidentally walk into a door!
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. I can only imagine how difficult it is to move. Didn't I read somewhere that they practice tasks underwater?
Yes, kk, it's called a neutral buoyancy tank. They set up full size models of the Hubble, ISS parts or whatever it is they will be working on in space and practice underwater...a LOT!
One of two things here Hale. 1) they were munching on KK's bourbon candy thingys, or 2)they were actually guests at the last JTI get together.
