NASA will provide live coverage as two Roscosmos cosmonauts conduct a series of spacewalks in April and May outside the International Space Station to relocate hardware from the Rassvet module to the new Nauka multipurpose laboratory module.
Follow each spacewalk on NASA Television, the NASA app, and the agency’s website at:
During the spacewalks, Expedition 69 cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin will venture outside the Poisk airlock Tuesday, April 18, Tuesday, April 25, and Thursday, May 4, to conduct the transfer and installation of a heat-rejecting radiator and an experiment airlock to Nauka. The airlock and the radiator attached to Rassvet were launched on the space shuttle Atlantis STS-132 mission in May 2010. The radiator and the airlock will be robotically transferred by ESA’s (European Space Agency) robotic arm on Nauka with those movements operated by cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev inside the orbital complex.
The content and coverage times of the spacewalks are (all times EDT):
Tuesday, April 18
9 p.m. - NASA TV coverage begins for a spacewalk to move a radiator on Rassvet to Nauka.
Tuesday, April 25
5:15 p.m. - NASA TV coverage begins for a spacewalk to move an experiment airlock from Rassvet to Nauka.
Thursday, May 4
2:45 p.m. - NASA TV coverage begins for a spacewalk to deploy a radiator on Nauka and connect mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic lines.
The spacewalks will be the fourth, fifth and sixth for Prokopyev, who will wear the Orlan spacesuit with the red stripes for all of the spacewalks and the second, third and fourth for Petelin, who will wear the spacesuit with the blue stripes.

NASA Updates Coverage of Roscosmos Spacewalks at Space Station
NASA will provide live coverage as two Roscosmos cosmonauts conduct two spacewalks in May outside the International Space Station to relocate hardware from the Rassvet module to the new Nauka multipurpose laboratory module.
Follow each spacewalk on NASA Television, the NASA app, and the agency’s website at:
During the spacewalks, Expedition 69 cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin will venture outside the Poisk airlock Wednesday, May 3 and Friday, May 12, to help in transfer and install of an experiment airlock to Nauka and deploy a radiator to provide module cooling. The airlock and the radiator attached to Rassvet were launched on the space shuttle Atlantis STS-132 mission in May 2010. The radiator and the airlock will be robotically transferred by ESA’s (European Space Agency) robotic arm on Nauka with those movements operated by cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev inside the orbital complex.
The content and coverage times of the spacewalks are (all times EDT):
Wednesday, May 3
3:30 p.m. - NASA TV coverage begins for a spacewalk to move an experiment airlock from Rassvet to Nauka.
Friday, May 12
11:30 a.m. - NASA TV coverage begins for a spacewalk to deploy a radiator on Nauka and connect mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic lines.
The spacewalks will be the fifth and sixth for Prokopyev, who will wear the Orlan spacesuit with the red stripes for all of the spacewalks and the third and fourth for Petelin, who will wear the spacesuit with the blue stripes.
