Both attired in training versions of the extravehicular mobility unit (EMU) space suit, astronauts Scott F. Parazynski (left) and Chris A. Hadfield stand on a platform that will ease the two STS-100 mission specialists into a giant pool of water at the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL).

Hadfield represents the Canadian Space Agency (CSA).
