Astronaut Michael Gernhardt during extravehicular activity (EVA)

STS069-714-046 (16 Sept. 1995) --- Astronaut Michael L. Gernhardt, STS-69 mission specialist, is pictured during the Sept. 16, 1995, Extravehicular Activity (EVA) which was conducted in and around space shuttle Endeavour's cargo bay. Gernhardt, whose visor reflects Endeavour's forward section, was standing on a mobile foot restraint attached to the arm of the Remote Manipulator System (RMS). Unlike earlier spacewalking astronauts, Gernhardt was able to use an Electronic Cuff Checklist (ECC), forerunner for Space Station. Evaluations for Space Station-era tools and various elements of the spacesuits were performed by Gernhardt and his spacewalking crewmate, astronaut James S. Voss, payload commander.
