Reply to comment by [deleted] in TIL: Thanks to poor internal communication at NASA, information about a spacesuit water leak wasn't properly communicated. Later, Astronaut Luca Parmitano almost drowned on a July, 2013 ISS space walk, his helmet filling with several liters of water before they could get him back inside. by OvidPerl

Space water? Glass ceiling? What the hell is going on?

I explain that here. The suits are filled with water as a coolant. It was a leak in that system.

No, no clearly all space walks are actually faked in a secret underwater studio. The coolant explanation is just an excuse.
