Two Russian cosmonauts have ventured out of the International Space Station on a spacewalk to prepare for the arrival of a new Russian module.
It’s the first spacewalk for both Oleg Novitsky and Pyotr Dubrov, who arrived at the space station in April, and it’s expected to last about 6.5 hours.
The two needed to get the space station ready for the undocking and disposal of the Pirs docking compartment, which will be replaced later this year by the new Nauka (Science) multipurpose laboratory module.
