Payload Specialist

Question:

Can the Payload Specialist in the Fueling Station with the grabber-thingy(excellent definition in my opinion ) extract several cells/rocks from the airlock and place them in a nearby location/inside the fueling station zone in a pile so he could just throw a few balls at a time instead of: take thingy, extract ball, put thingy down, throw cell/rock accuratley, repeat.

Of course, he could hold the thingy in one hand and throw the ball with the other, but it's more accurate to throw with two hands for further distances too.

<G11> mentions it.

There's nothing in the rules to prohibit the PS from putting the tongs down. There will be a container provided for the balls, so you don't have to worry about building a pile of rolly objects.
