NASA also did some water training for the EVAs of Gemini 12 (launched late 1966), I'm unsure what pool they used for that. I'm unsure what Russia used prior to 1980 but I know a book that would have info on it.--Craigboy (talk) 05:44, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
thread_title: Some More Info

message: Does anyone know what sort of water NASA use in this? Yes, I know, the sort made out oxygen and hydrogen, but tap, distilled, chlorinated? I imagine it's necessary to inhibit growth of algae etc., and that there could be problems with any kit which is immersed for any period of time. Also they won't want to empty it too often to clean it out. If anyone has the details, maybe they could add them to the article.86.164.110.91 (talk) 21:22, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Chlorinated. Also if I remember correctly, it has never been emptied and took several weeks to fill.--Craigboy (talk) 05:49, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
