Crew Compartment Trainer

STS-65 Japanese Payload Specialist Chiaki Mukai takes a break from training at Johnson Space Center in December 1993. Wearing a training version of the orange launch and entry suit, Mukai stands at the Crew Compartment Trainer (CCT) side hatch in the Mockup and Integration Laboratory. Note the crew escape system pole device extending out the side hatch, which would accommodate crewmembers in bailout from a troubled spacecraft. Mukai represents the National Space Development Agency (NASDA) of Japan and will serve as a payload specialist aboard Columbia during the STS-65 International Microgravity Laboratory 2 (IML-2) mission.
