Title
SAFER Tests by Meade and Lee
Full Description
Astronauts Carl J. Meade and Mark C. Lee (red stripe on suit) test
the Simplified Aid for EVA Rescue (SAFER) system some 130 nautical
miles from Earth. The pair were actually performing an in-space
rehearsal or demonstration of a contingency rescue using the never-
before flown hardware.
Meade, who here wears the small back-pack unit with its complementary
chest-mounted control unit, and Lee, anchored to Discovery's Remote
Manipulator System (RMS) robot arm, took turns using the SAFER hardware
during their shared space walk of September 16, 1994.
