The most likely is that prior to space walks, the space suits were contaminated. I would imagine that the static charge on any particle, in such a dry environment, would be quite high. Anyone who has worked in a dry glove-box can relate.

BSJ: Duh. I read that, and then promptly forgot it when I wrote the post.

“The bacteria were brought to the space station accidentally on tablet PCs together with various materials that are placed aboard the ISS for long time to study the materials’ behavior in outer space”
