I watched it live. It took the two space walkers a lot of time and a lot of effort to even get the shot off. I came away with a new sense of how difficult it is to do anything in a spacesuit in orbit, especially building a station. I'll bet the video from the other angle which will be used for the commercial will look really cool.

Must have been a ladies foursome.

I think Gene Cernan might agree with you on that. He found out about the difficulties some 40 years ago.

And others, like the guys fixing Skylab.

The ISS turned out to be a big waste of time and resources, starving other NASA projects that actually contribute
to the advancement of science and knowledge.
