NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson (middle) poses with Expedition 50 Commander Shane Kimbrough of NASA (left) and Flight Engineer Thomas Pesquet of ESA (European Space Agency) (right) prior to their spacewalk. The pair conducted a six hour and 34 minute spacewalk on March 24, 2017. The two astronauts successfully disconnected cables and electrical connections on the Pressurized Mating Adapter-3 to prepare for its robotic move, lubricated the latching end effector on the Special Purpose Dexterous Manipulator “extension” for the Canadarm2 robotic arm, inspected a radiator valve and replaced cameras on the Japanese segment of the outpost.
