The lack of spacesuit sizing options reflects the composition of NASA’s astronauts: The most recent class consisted of seven men and five women, but only 12 of the 38 currently active astronauts are women. Female astronauts have still been major participants in EVAs: Susan Helms shares the record for longest duration, spending nearly nine hours outside the airlock; Peggy Whitson has made 10 trips, for a cumulative 60-plus hours in free-fall.
宇航服尺码选项缺乏反映出美国宇航局的人员结构:最近(执行任务)的一组宇航员是七名男性、五名女性,但是38名现役宇航员中只有12名是女性。不过,女性宇航员仍是舱外活动的主要参与者:苏珊·海尔姆斯和另外一名男宇航员共同保持着舱外活动最长时间纪录,在舱外度过近9个小时;佩吉·惠特森一共进行过10次舱外活动,在微重力状态下累计度过了60多个小时。
An all-women spacewalk will have to wait, but McClain is scheduled to head out the airlock again on April 8 alongside Canadian astronaut David Saint-Jacques.
全女性太空行走还有待实现,但麦克莱恩已被安排在4月8日再次进行舱外活动,届时她的搭档将是加拿大宇航员戴维·圣雅克。
