On Wednesday, 11/19/08, the NASA crew was repairing the ISS. While the space-walker (Capt. Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper) was outside the spaceship,she discovered that one of her grease guns broke open in the tool bag she was carrying. (here is a video). Her tool bag contained 2 other grease guns, scrapers and other sorts of tools. She cleaned the mess up but she had not noticed that her tool bag had started to float into the infinite expanse of space. NASA tried to recover it, but it had been lost and it wasn't coming back. It is a good thing that there weren't electronics in the bag!

oops! I have the same topic as Ivy. Sorry!
Why is it a good thing that there were no electronics in the bag?
The video is really cool, also really long! When you click on the button it logs you out. JSYK!!! What do you think the space-walker was feeling? Guilt...??
maybe?
