Today's Sydney Morning Herald has an article about a recent spacewalk
by astronaut Drew Feustel (http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/feustel-aj.html) where some of the anti-fog solution - basically
just dishwashing soap - which is applied to the inside of the visor before EVA
had flaked off and got into his eye whilst he was in the suit.
So faced with this problem, how does one remove the accumulated tear drops from
one's eye when one can no longer touch one's face?
Interested readers can find out plus learn what the "slow motion hokey pokey" is and
when it is used by reading the SMH article here -
