  Title: STS-37 crewmembers test CETA hand cart during training session in JSC's WETF
  Description:
  STS-37 Atlantis, Orbiter Vehicle (OV) 104, Mission Specialist (MS) Jerry L. 
  Ross and MS Jerome Apt test crew and equipment translation aid (CETA)
  manual  hand over hand cart during underwater session in JSC's Weightless
  Environment  Training Facility (WETF) Bldg 29.  Wearing an extravehicular
  mobility unit  (EMU), Ross pulls the CETA manual cart along the rail while
  Apt holds onto  the back of the cart. The test will determine how difficult
  it is to maneuver  cargo in such a manner when it is done in space on
  STS-37.  The goal is to  find the best method for astronauts to move around
  the exterior of Space  Station Freedom (SSF).
