Astronauts Robert L. Curbeam, Jr. and Christer Fuglesang, STS-116 mission specialists, wearing training versions of the Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) spacesuit, participate in an underwater simulation of extravehicular activity (EVA) scheduled for the 19th shuttle mission to the International Space Station (ISS). Curbeam and Fuglesang are dwarfed by station truss segments in this overall view of the simulation conducted in the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) near the Johnson Space Center. Fuglesang represents the European Space Agency (ESA).
