    Canadian Statement Agenda Item 4 – General Exchange of Views Statement delivered by: Head of Delegation Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space Scientific and Technical Subcommittee Fifty-seventh Session, Vienna, Feb 3-14, 2020 Madame la Présidente, C’est avec grand plaisir que la délégation canadienne vous souhaite la bienvenue à titre de nouvelle présidente du sous-comité scientifique et technique. Nous avons hâte de travailler sous votre direction compétente pour progresser sur les éléments importants de cette session, notamment les travaux de suivi des 21 directives sur viabilité à long terme des activités spatiales ainsi que le programme « Espace 2030 » et de son plan de mise en œuvre. Ma délégation aimerait également exprimé sa gratitude à la directrice du bureau des affaires extra-atmosphériques des Nations Unies, Madame Simonetta Di Pippo ainsi qu’à son équipe entière pour leurs continuels efforts à supporter les états membres dans leur travail. Madame la présidente, distingués délégués, 2019 fut une autre année majeure pour le Canada dans l’espace, particulièrement dans les domaines des vols habités, de l’utilisation de l’espace et de l’exploration spatiale. On December 3, 2018, astronaut David Saint-Jacques launched on Canada’s third longest duration crew mission to the ISS alongside NASA astronaut Anne McClain and Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko. His six-month stay on the ISS included record-setting productivity in science. During his assignment on the ISS, Dr. Saint-Jacques performed critical robotics and operations tasks, including a spacewalk; conducted a series of Canadian and international science experiments; acted as crew medical officer; and shared his experience through numerous education and outreach events.

McClain, meanwhile, reported having a thin layer of moisture inside her helmet. The change to her visor was noticeable in the last 15 minutes of the spacewalk, she noted. NASA is wary about moisture inside helmets ever since an Italian astronaut almost drowned during a spacewalk nearly six years ago because of a water leak in his suit. McClain insisted she wasn't wet, and that the moisture was minimal. A crewmate later noted perspiration. Earlier, McClain and Saint-Jacques hustled through their part in battery swap-outs that began last Canadian astronaut David Saint-Jacques, right, and month.
