In this update from NEEMO 19, ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen and ESA astronaut trainer Hervé Stevenin explain the Heads-Up experiment they are performing in support of technology development and science onboard the International Space Station. <br /> <br />NEEMO – NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations – trains astronauts for life in space. Living and working in an underwater base is similar to being on a space station. <br /> <br />NEEMO’s underwater habitat off Florida acts as makeshift a space base for astronauts to make regular ‘waterwalks’ in full scuba gear. Both underwater missions plan sorties for the astronauts to simulate spacewalks. <br /> <br />More about NEEMO: <br />http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Human_Spaceflight/Astronauts/NEEMO <br /> <br />Connect with Andreas Mogensen on social media: <br />http://andreasmogensen.esa.int <br /> <br />NASA's NEEMO website: <br />http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/NEEMO/ <br /> <br />Got a question for Andreas? Post it in the comments below and maybe he will answer it in one of his video updates.
