NASA Commentator Dan Huot talks with Dr. Tina Holden, the principal investigator of the Fine Motor Skills experiment, which is looking to quantify how extended exposure to weightlessness impacts an astronaut’s ability to complete tasks. The experiment uses a small computer to test the crew member’s performance on a series of simple tasks to gauge whether or not their fine motor skills have been adversely impacted by their prolonged time on orbit.
