with my gloved hand .
So, I took the thermal
gloves off at this time and I handed them to
Jim.
When I got back out I didn't notice
any temperature extremes.
I felt quite confident
that there wouldn
I t be any heat since we just
came out of the dark side, so I decided to do
the actual work in putting this equipment on
with my plain pressure suit gloves .
I had much
more feel with them.
Let me get back now to the
umbilical guard on the door.
I t went on pretty
well. It took me a little longer and it took
me four or five trys to get the little pin into
the hole that actually snubbed the guard down
on the door.
I did something then that I
hadn ' t planned to do.
The bag had floated up
and out of the spacecraft and now it was above
the point where the hose was going through the
umbilical guard .
I had planned to keep it down
inside .
I left it there for two reasons:
(1)
I figured it was there already and I would have
had to take the umbilical cord off again and
scooted it back down , and (2) I also felt that
Jim might have had a better view if it wasn't
sitting right in front of him on the hose coming
