ESA Astronaut Luca Parmitano gives us the rundown on his space suit or Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU). He also explains the different safety procedures that are used in order to stay safe while working outside the safe confines of the station. Luca who is currently on a long duration mission on the International Space Station became the first Italian astronaut to walk in space on July 9th 2013. His second spacewalk was aborted when the helmet of his spacesuit started filling with water from the suits cooling system. In the second video Luca explains what it was like during the events of the second EVA.
