An extended EVA is an EVA that is scheduled to take longer than a normal EVA.
Normally, EVAs should last from fifteen to twenty minutes. An extended EVA lasts longer, and in certain circumstances involves astronauts leaving the Planetary Surface. Extended EVAs are almost never done, and they are frowned upon as a major breach of Mission Integrity.
Extended EVAs
- In 2004-05 Stefan De Young and Jonathan Scothorn went on an extended EVA to perform in Senior Music Night, thereby breaking The Golden Rule.
