<\/a>NASA Television coverage is underway of today\u2019s spacewalk with Russian cosmonauts to continue outfitting the European robotic arm on the International Space Station<\/a>\u2019s Nauka laboratory. Coverage of the spacewalk is on NASA Television, the\u00a0NASA app<\/a>, and agency\u2019s\u00a0website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Expedition 67 Commander Oleg Artemyev and Flight Engineer Denis Matveev, both of Roscosmos, will install cameras on the European robotic arm, relocate an external control panel for the arm from one operating area to another, remove launch restraints near the two end effectors or \u201chands\u201d of the arm, and test a rigidizing mechanism on the arm that will be used to facilitate the grasping of payloads.<\/p>\n Artemyev and Matveev will exit out of the Poisk module about 9:20 a.m. EDT to begin the six-and-a-half-hour excursion. Artemyev will wear a Russian Orlan spacesuit with red stripes, while Matveev will wear a Russian Orlan suit with blue stripes. This will be the seventh spacewalk for Artemyev and the third for Matveev. It will be the seventh spacewalk at the station in 2022 and the 252nd spacewalk<\/a>\u202ffor space station assembly, maintenance, and upgrades.<\/p>\n The European robotic arm will be used to move payloads and equipment outside the Russian segment of the station, joining the Canadian-built Canadarm2 robotic arm and the Japanese arm already supporting station maintenance, operations, and research.<\/p>\n Learn more about station activities by following the space station blog<\/a>, @space_station<\/a> and @ISS_Research<\/a> on Twitter, as well as the ISS Facebook<\/a> and ISS Instagram<\/a> accounts.<\/p>\n Get weekly video highlights at: http:\/\/jscfeatures.jsc.nasa.gov\/videoupdate\/<\/a><\/p>\n Get the latest from NASA delivered every week.
