We found out the Gemini spacesuit was, well, oxygen was flowing to keep me cool as well as to breathe, and it wasn't good enough. My visor got fogged.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am a Gemini and can adapt to most atmospheres. You get two for the price of one when you are a Gemini.
The heavy spacesuits are spectacular to look at but very hot. Putting one on was like going from chilly London winter weather to the Bahamas in just minutes.
Even with the sun beaming down on me I'm not sweating in my mind. I'm not sweating in my heart or in my career.
Flying is awful, there's nothing to do when you're up in the air. I bloat up, my skin gets dry, and when we hit turbulence, I'm terrified.
For cool things to happen, you have to get out of your comfort zone.
Actually, I didn't start sweating until I had children.
I had been lucky that my physiology is well suited to space training.
I came from the projects. So there were times I'd wake up at night, and my palms would be itching to get out. But no matter where I was, I always looked at the stars, because there's nothing ugly about the sky. That was my escape.
I'm like a mosquito, I love humidity. I don't sweat.
My suit blew up into a parachute. All this water rushed in, there's air, water in there. I was freaking out.
