Chicks in Space – Astro Gals Manage to Lose Bag of Tools During Spacewalk
- Replace one of the 12 trundle bearing assemblies on the port solar alpha rotary joint, which allows the arrays to track the Sun and generate electricity to power the station. (In other words, change the batteries.)
- Remove and stow a communications electronics box called the Radio Frequency Group. (But wait, there's more.)
"The duo lifted some multilayer insulation to make a better assessment of how to approach the job before replacing the insulation and deferring the task to a future spacewalk."
"During the activity, one tool bag was inadvertently lost. Flight controllers spotted the tool bag using external station cameras."Amazingly, NASA also claims;
"The tools were not needed for the remainder of the spacewalk."Riiiiiight.
- Who was the dumbass who tasked two chicks to fix anything?
- So, they supposedly ran out of time to make the second repair? Since when do time constraints apply to women?
- Shockingly, a bag filled with undoubtedly ridiculously over-priced space tools just so happened to float into the nothingness of space with neither gal noticing. You can bet that if that bag had their tampons, said bag would have been velcro-ed, super-glued, and JB Welded to their spacesuits.
