Crew support tools for Euromir 95.
The Euromir 95 long-duration mission raised many new crew-support issues for ESA. Previous mission experience indicated the need for increased emphasis on generic tools for astronaut Thomas Reiter. In addition, some possible solutions could be demonstrated to combat Mir's onboard stowage problem. Overall, the mission considerably increased ESA's operational experience, while the experimental introduction of certain items generated a vast number of 'lessons learned' in the crew-support domain. Further experience in this area would enhance Europe's role in the International Space Station's operational phase.
