Update: Rick Mastracchio, had to cut his latest spacewalk short after he noticed a hole in his left glove. The long rip in the thumb penetrated only the two outer layers of the five-layer glove, and he was never in any danger, Mission Control said. Nevertheless, he was ordered back inside early as a precaution, and his spacewalking partner quickly finished what he was doing and followed him in.
