The Expedition 70 crew continues preparing for a pair of spacewalks for science and maintenance outside the International Space Station.
NASA astronaut Loral O’Hara and European Space Agency astronaut Andreas Mogensen of Denmark are getting ready for their first spacewalk set to begin at 10 a.m. EST on Oct. 12, 2023. The duo will use specialized tools to collect microbe samples from specific areas outside of the station.
Another spacewalk is scheduled for Oct. 20, 2023, with O’Hara and fellow NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli. They will remove and replace communications and solar array hardware.
