A spacewalker, also known as an astronaut, is someone who steps out into the endless void of outer space to conduct repairs, maintenance, and scientific experiments. Synonyms for this term include extravehicular activity (EVA) specialist, spacewalk technician, cosmic stroll specialist, and zero-gravity explorer. These terms often represent different aspects of spacewalking, such as technical proficiency, scientific knowledge, or the ability to navigate weightlessness. Regardless of the name, a spacewalker requires a combination of physical and mental preparation to step outside of their spacecraft and into the vast expanse of space.
