  Title: ESA MS Nicollier, in EMU, is ready for underwater simulation in JSC's WETF
  Description:
  European Space Agency (ESA) Mission Specialist (MS) Claude Nicollier, fully 
  suited in an extravehicular mobility unit (EMU), raises his arms
  victoriously  after a long donning struggle.  The platform Nicollier is
  standing on will be  lowered into JSC's Weightless Environment Training
  Facility (WETF) Bldg 29  pool.  Once underwater, Nicollier will participate
  in an extravehicular  activity (EVA) simulation and familiarization
  session.
