I wish them the best of luck.



How exactly does one assemble a space station saving cufflink from
spare parts? Very carefully, as appears to be the case in the seven-
part instructions that were uplinked to the astronauts, complete with
illustrations for key steps.

SPACE.com's live coverage of the spacewalk begins Saturday morning at
5:00 a.m. EDT (0900 GMT).


I wonder if you'd ever get a Sherline or similar putting a mini lathe
and mini mill on the space station for those odd off duty moments :-)
and for brewing up little repairs?

think of the bragging rights :-) NASA saves the day with a Taig lathe
:-)

gotta be potential there.
