The primary mission objective for STS-101 was to deliver supplies to the International Space Station, perform a space walk, and reboost the station from 230 statute miles to 250 statute miles. The commander of this mission was James D. Halsell. The crew was Scott J. Horowitz, the pilot, and mission specialists Mary Ellen Weber, Jeffrey N. Williams, James S. Voss, Susan J. Helms, and Yuri Vladimirovich Usachev. This videotape is a press briefing by Scott Bleisath, STS-101 Lead EVA Officer, about the planned Extravehicular Activity planned for the fourth day of the mission. The work that this EVA is to accomplish is the repair of a crane and the installation of a beam on Unity. The astronauts will also replace antennae and install hand rails and cables. The astronauts who are scheduled to perform the EVA activities are Williams and Voss. They will be assisted by Weber, who will operate the Shuttle's robotic arm, and Scott Horowitz. The spacewalk is scheduled to take 6 hours. The videotape includes some views of the astronauts training in an underwater environment. Mr. Bleisath answered questions from the press after he completed the briefing.
