To mark the 50th anniversary of the first U.S. spacewalk, astronaut Terry Virts shows us how NASA gets ready for a spacewalk, and pays tribute to the past accomplishment of Gemini IV. This video shows the “suit up” process Terry completed prior to one of his three spacewalks in February and March of this year. Near the end of the video, Terry commemorates the accomplishments of Gemini IV. The video ends with crew member Jim McDivitt describing the Gemini spacewalk from inside the spacecraft, and Ed White beginning his spacewalk.
