If they were Craftsmen Tools, they could get a replacement.................
Helluva price to pay for being stylish.
Good thing they didn’t loose the keys to the station so they could get back in....
I took a tour of a major car manufacturer about a year ago. We saw the workers use a variety of tools that the company had designed just for putting a car together. One of them was called a “bone”, it was about 8 inches long and engineered so it wouldn’t leave any marks if it brushed against the car’s paint. That little hunk of high tech plastic cost $200 and they had PLENTY in reserve. An astronaut tool would probably be something like ten grand.
This is EXACTLY why my wife is NEVER allowed to use my tools!
Good think they didn’t drop a sledgehammer. That could have hurt.
My wife has a purse holder she depends on when she’s out shopping-ME.

Moral of the story - women are better at carrying purses than toolbags. 😊 (Covering for incoming)

“Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s...a bag of tools...???!!!”
Putting women in charge of official business puts all of us at risk...
The two affirmative action “astronauts” just showed why long time grad students really don’t make good auto mechanics.
Neither of those two can change the oil on their Teslas. Oh Wait...
Have they found Hoffa up there yet?
There’s too many jokes about how these were both women...
The article says two toolbags have been lost.
“In 2008, as NASA astronaut Heide Stefanyshyn-Piper attempted to repair a jammed gear on an ISS solar panel, she lost her grip on another tool bag with then circled our planet.”
Yup.
Guess they weren’t snap-on tools.
One time I was looking for my nice, beautiful Estwing claw hammer (locally made). It had a beautiful shiny finish, it wasn’t cheap, either.
I looked hi and low, couldn’t find it. The next Spring, I found it-out in the grass, rusted. I asked her how it ended up in the grass, I don’t remember know what she said, but she used it for something, and forgot to bring it in.
