The paper studies the possibilities and quality of performing a number of standard EVA operations by cosmonauts after a long-duration space mission aboard the ISS Russian Segment. Experiments have been conducted using the gravity offload stand that allows simulating the Martian gravity and conditions of spacesuited activity of cosmonauts on the planet surface. A comparative evaluation of the EVA operations performed by cosmonauts in pre- and post-flight experiments has been carried out.
