The initial spacewalk to begin the assembly of the International Space Station was held on 7 December 1998, [4] following the launch of the first section of the station, Zarya, from Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan, on 20 November 1998. [5] The spacewalk attached the U.S.-built Unity node to Zarya. [4]
Installed gap spanners on the hull of the station for facilitating movement of crew members on future spacewalks, cleaned windows of the Zvezda Service Module, installed fasteners on communications antennas, replaced an aging docking antenna, photographed various locations and hardware on Zvezda and nearby modules, and retrieved a space environment experiment.
This is a list of all astronauts who have engaged in an EVA by partly or fully leaving a spacecraft, exclusive of extravehicular activity on the lunar surface. It is ordered chronologically by the date of first spacewalk.
This is a list of cumulative spacewalk records for the 30 astronauts who have the most extra-vehicular activity (EVA) time. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The record is currently held by Anatoly Solovyev of the Russian Federal Space Agency , with 82:22 hours from 16 EVAs, followed by NASA 's Michael Lopez-Alegria with 67:40 hours in 10 EVAs.
This list contains all spacewalks and moonwalks performed from 1965 to 1999 where an astronaut has fully or partially left a spacecraft. Entries for moonwalks are shown with a gray background while entries for all other EVAs are uncolored. All spacewalks have had the astronauts tethered to their spacecraft except for seven spacewalks by the ...
The first in-flight repair of the Space Shuttle. The landmass in the backdrop is the Bari region of Somalia. Extravehicular activity (EVA) is any activity done by an astronaut in outer space outside a spacecraft. In the absence of a breathable Earthlike atmosphere, the astronaut is completely reliant on a space suit for environmental support.
This list contains all spacewalks performed between 12 May 2000 and 22 October 2014 where an astronaut fully or partially left a spacecraft. [1] Since 1981, NASA has measured spacewalk duration from when the suits went to internal power until the start of airlock re-pressurization. Roscosmos has always measured spacewalk duration from the time ...
