inlet temperature, but the suit itself stayed
reasonably warm.
I had sun in the cockpit and I
had the cockpit open w:i.thout the s1.m iii it for a
rel.:1.tively long period of time, four or five
minutes at a time. This didn't seem to affect
my temperature inside the suit.
I think you felt the temperature more than I did.
I felt the temperature go down, rather than up.
I felt that also while outside.
I would say
H was lery co::nfortable figu.re.
I figure that I
was probably at 68 degrees temperature out
there inside the suit , which was cooler than I
had been anytime during the flight . It wasn't
a cold feeling, just a very natural comfortable
temperatnre .
~uit inlet temperature was running about 55
degrees during most of the flight . It got d•:>wn
around 52, s0 it probably might have even been
cooler than yo'ir 68.
Wel l, it was cooler insi1e the suit when I was
outsi:ie the spacecraft thn.n at any other time
during the flight . It wasn't uncomfortably cool
there at all.
I t hink that we can go on with some co::1clusions .
