Leroy Chiao Quotes
We were trying to do as much science as we could because that was the main purpose of the international space station.

And I got a chance to do two Russian spacewalks on that flight, I had become an expert in U.S. spacewalks and using U.S. suits and techniques, and this was a chance to put on a Russian Orlan suit and do two construction space flights outside of the space station.
