He describes his role as the lead astronaut on this effort, and covered all of the Neutral Buoyancy Lab (NBL), KC 135 (reduced gravity aircraft), Precision Air Bearing Floor (PABF), vacuum chamber and 1 G testing that was done in order to develop the tools and techniques that were flown. Parazynski also discusses how the EVA community worked together to resolve a huge safety issue, and how his work in the spacesuit was critical to overcoming a design limitation of the Space Shuttle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nasa Technical Reports Server (Ntrs),Scott Parazynski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1289155860\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781289155865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bibliogov\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/09\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 58\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.27lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.69h x 7.44w x 0.12d","brand":"Nasa Technical Reports Server (Ntrs)","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47611424702719,"sku":"9781289155865","price":17.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_92498e7d-ac77-459f-af8e-40a036455602.jpg?v=1764513792","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tps-inspection-and-repair-nasa-technical-reports-server-ntrs-9781289155865","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
