How’s this for a going‑out outfit?
NASA astronaut Jessica Meir was seen preparing for her upcoming spacewalk outside the International Space Station (ISS).
She shared pictures of herself reconfiguring her spacesuit and assembling equipment in the orbital platform's airlock.
This comes as the Expedition 74 crew readies a modification and cable‑routing task on the station’s port side.

Jessica said March 4: "I started off the week in my happy place, in the Space Station airlock assembling my spacesuit! Delighted to be prepping for our upcoming spacewalks, stay tuned!"
Social media fans were impressed.
X user Brooke Edwards posted: "I can only image that feeling! Thanks for giving us a glimpse into your life on ISS! "
While Jeffrey Kluger commented: "OK, this is just too exciting. Be safe—and have fun! You are doing amazing work."
