<\/a>Four Expedition 69<\/a> crew members are relaxing today following Saturday\u2019s relocation of a U.S. crew ship. At the same time, three cosmonauts are gearing up for another spacewalk to outfit a science module on the International Space Station<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sunday and Monday were off-duty days for flight engineers Stephen Bowen<\/a> and Woody Hoburg<\/a>, both from NASA, Sultan Alneyadi<\/a> from UAE (United Arab Emirates, and Andrey Fedyaev<\/a> from Roscosmos. The four crewmates cleared their schedules both days taking time out for personal activities, light cleaning duties, and exercise.<\/p>\n The foursome spent Saturday supporting the relocation<\/a> of the SpaceX Crew Dragon Endeavour from the Harmony module<\/a>\u2019s space-facing port to Harmony\u2019s forward port. The automated undocking and redocking maneuver lasted just 37 minutes while the undocking preparations and the post-docking configuration activities took up the majority of the crew\u2019s time. This opens up Harmony\u2019s top port for the arrival of the upcoming SpaceX Dragon cargo mission carrying the station\u2019s newest roll-out solar arrays.<\/p>\n NASA Flight Engineer Frank Rubio<\/a> also had Sunday and Monday off following his assistance with the Dragon relocation activities. Rubio worked Saturday configuring tools and software, opening and closing the station hatch, and monitoring Endeavour during its ride to a different Harmony port.<\/p>\n The year\u2019s sixth spacewalk<\/a> is planned for 11:55 a.m. EDT on Friday to continue outfitting the Roscosmos segment of the orbital outpost. Commander Sergey Prokopyev<\/a> and Flight Engineer Dmitri Petelin<\/a> will once again exit the Poisk airlock<\/a> and maneuver to the Nauka science module<\/a> for the planned six-hour-plus spacewalk. Once there, the duo will deploy and activate a radiator they installed during a previous spacewalk on April 19<\/a>. Fedyaev will help the cosmonauts in and out of their Orlan spacesuits and monitor the spacewalking activities.<\/p>\n NASA, Axiom Space, & SpaceX are targeting no earlier than 5:37 p.m. EDT Sunday, May 21, for launch of Axiom Mission 2 to the International Space Station. NASA & SpaceX also are targeting 12:34 p.m. EDT Saturday, June 3, for launch of the company\u2019s 28th commercial resupply flight. The mission will carry the next pair of IROSAs, roll-out solar arrays, for the space station.<\/p>\n Learn more about station activities by following the\u00a0space station blog<\/a>,\u00a0@space_station<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0@ISS_Research<\/a>\u00a0on Twitter, as well as the\u00a0ISS Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0ISS Instagram<\/a>\u00a0accounts.<\/p>\n Get weekly video highlights at:\u00a0https:\/\/roundupreads.jsc.nasa.gov\/videupdate\/<\/a><\/p>\n Get the latest from NASA delivered every week.
