Bubble Model[edit]

Not quite seeing the reason that Category:Decompression algorithms was put on this article? Is this an error? --Legis (talk - contribs) 12:43, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gernhardt's bubble model is unique and deserves a greater coverage on this page but it has not been done yet. Feel free to expand on it using his thesis. So, it is listed because this is currently the only page with reference to this decompression algorithm available.

File:Michael Gernhardt in space during STS-69 in 1995.jpg to appear as POTD soon[edit]

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Michael Gernhardt in space during STS-69 in 1995.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on May 4, 2020. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2020-05-04. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks!

Picture of the day

Michael L. Gernhardt (born May 4, 1956) is a NASA astronaut and bioengineer. Before becoming an astronaut, he worked as a professional diver and project engineer on a variety of subsea oil field construction and repair projects. A four-flight veteran, Gernhardt has logged over 43 days in space, including four spacewalks totaling 23 hours and 16 minutes. In October 2011, he participated in the NEEMO 15 mission in the DeepWorker submersible, a small submarine used as an underwater stand-in for the Space Exploration Vehicle, which might someday be used to explore the surface of an asteroid.

This photograph shows Gernhardt attached to the robotic arm of Space Shuttle Endeavour during a spacewalk as part of the STS-69 mission in 1995, with the pale blue Earth serving as a backdrop. Unlike earlier spacewalking astronauts, Gernhardt was able to use an electronic cuff checklist, a prototype developed for the assembly of the International Space Station.Photograph credit: NASA
