Some conclusions that I had were:
1.
I didn ' t notice any extremely hot temperatures
on the outside of the spacecraft .
I al so
didn' t co~tact surfaces for any period of
time to tra~sfer much in the way of a hea~
load to any part of my suit including the
gloYes .
2. There I s a de.fi·-iite req-.ii rement for som(3 type
of hand holds outside the spacecraft .
3.
We should think a little more o~ where we want
to operate during EVA and where to attach
the tether .
The tether was not attached at
a po.int that wo·.1ld provide me the capability
to operate in the area that I wanted to .
You coul dn't get to the nose. It p.i:-ovided great
operatio~ for directly above.
Straight above.
I just don ' t know how you would get the thing
out there .
You would have to run it along the
spacecraft , then attach it somewhere at thfi
"
front .
It would preclude operations in other areas.
You
would either have to accept ,,,here we a.re going
to operate or-- .
