Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by snf13 on 08-03-2005 01:01 PM STS-114 is the first flight (and first US EVA) since the patch was updated. From the EVA Program Office website... <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]The five stars on the patch represent five historic milestones in U. S. extravehicular activity: America's first EVA by Ed White on Gemini IV; man's first steps on the lunar surface, made possible by the Apollo space suit worn by Neil Armstrong; the space walks of Pete Conrad and Joe Kerwin to repair and eventually save Skylab; the first space shuttle EVA performed on STS-6 by Story Musgrave and Don Peterson; and the first International Space Station (ISS) EVA performed by Mike Gernhardt and Jim Reilly.[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE>
