[FPSPACE] EVA....Both crew are out !!!

[John Locker]

Both crew members have emerged from the airlock...one waving a chinese flag

Interestingly there was a picture break up as the signal was passed from one 
tracking station to another....There was an instant loss of image as they 
are using full digital downlink , where as , had this been analogue , we 
would have seen a gradual degradation of image .....This illustrates one of 
the major drawbacks of digital versus analogue.
