NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Nick Hague are set to step outside the International Space Station (ISS) for a spacewalk.
Two NASA astronauts are currently hard at work in space, patching up an instrument called NICER (Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer).
NASA astronauts Nick Hague and Suni Williams, dressed in pressurized NASA spacesuits, moved through the Quest airlock and into the vacuum of space. This was the first NASA spacewalk since November ...
Suni Williams stepped out on a spacewalk Thursday, her first since arriving at the International Space Station seven months ago.
The two astronauts have a busy day ahead of them. Hague and Williams will "patch light leaks in the NICER X-ray telescope, then ready the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer for future upgrades," NASA officials wrote in a Jan. 15 blog post.
This event, known as US Spacewalk 91, is Williams' first in 12 years and her eighth overall, while for Hague, it's his fourth venture outside the ISS.
Astronauts Suni Williams and Nick Hague completed pivotal maintenance tasks on the International Space Station in their latest spacewalk, enhancing its research capabilities. NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Nick Hague successfully completed a 6-hour spacewalk on January 16,
The pictures were taken inside the International Space Station last week, when Sunita Williams and Nick Hague donned spacesuits to carry out “fit checks.”
During this spacewalk, Williams and Hague will step out to replace a rate gyro assembly which provides orientation control for the space station. They will install patches to cover the damaged areas of light filters for Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER),
Suni Williams, one of NASA's two stuck astronauts, stepped out on her first spacewalk since arriving at the International Space Station seven months ago.
After a gap of more than a year, NASA successfully resumed spacewalks outside the International Space Station on Thursday. NASA astronauts Nick Hague and Suni Williams, dressed in pressurized NASA spacesuits, moved through the Quest airlock and into the vacuum of space.
On January 21, the Expedition 72 crew spent the day getting ready for their second spacewalk of 2025 outside the International Space Station (ISS). This mission focuses on removing old communications equipment and investigating the presence of potential microbes.
