Space Walz
Astronaut Carl Walz waves to his colleagues from the aft end of the Space Shuttle Discovery. This 1993 spacewalk tested tools, tethers, and a foot restraint for use in a weightless environment. Walz orbited Earth at the time, evaluating equipment. This image captured a moment of that orbital work.
