Publisher's Synopsis

Prominent among the challenges associated with International Space Station (ISS) construction is the large amount of time that astronauts will be spending doing extravehicular activity (EVA), or "space walks." This title estimates that the likelihood of having a potentially dangerous solar event during an EVA is indeed very high.
