The body build for a good spaceship technician
+0

I am designing a species specifically designed to be technician on spacecrafts, where their workspaces have low-gravity. Here is how they are currently designed:
- They have two pairs of arms instead of the current human design, two arms and two legs.
- They have a prehensile tail which can wrap around the various bars placed around the ship.
- Their main body is quite small, with very long and thin arms.
What I want to ask is, what other attributes would help them survive and thrive in this environment? They should be able to survive in Earth-like gravity and conditions, and survivability in the case of a hull breach would be handy.
The basic idea is based on this article: BBC: Will we ever have genetically modified astronauts?
