Misurkin then used the Strela to maneuver Yurchikhin with cables to the Zarya module near the Unity node. Yurchikhin then rerouted a cable connector and installed cables on Zarya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Yurchikhin was working on Zarya, Misurkin installed an experiment panel on Poisk. The experiment, named Vinoslivost, exposes materials to the space environment so scientists can study the changes in their properties. He then installed two connector patch panels and gap spanners on Poisk.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-none \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-081513a.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"226\" height=\"170\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-081513a.jpg?w=226\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"Spacewalker Fyodor Yurchikhin rides on the tip of a Russian crane, the Strela cargo boom, to his work site on the Zarya module to install and route ethernet and power cables.\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Spacewalker Fyodor Yurchikhin rides on the tip of a Russian crane, the Strela cargo boom, to his work site on the Zarya module to install and route ethernet and power cables.<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>After completing the Poisk work Misurkin joined Yurchikhin and assisted him with the Ethernet cable installation work on the Zarya cargo module. The duo went back and forth between Zarya and Poisk routing and installing the cable at various points and securing the cable\u2019s slack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cable work outside the station\u2019s Russian segment prepares the orbital laboratory for the arrival of the \u201cNauka\u201d Multipurpose Laboratory Module. The \u201cNauka\u201d is planned for a launch atop a Russian Proton rocket to replace Pirs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the duration of the spacewalk, station Commander Pavel Vinogradov and Flight Engineer Chris Cassidy were isolated to the Poisk module and their Soyuz TMA-08M spacecraft while Flight Engineers Karen Nyberg of NASA and Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency moved about the U.S. segment of the complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spacewalk is the 172<sup>nd<\/sup> in support of station assembly and maintenance, the seventh in Yurchikhin\u2019s career and the second for Misurkin. The two will venture outside Pirs again on Aug. 22 to replace a laser communications experiment with a platform upon which a small optical telescope will be mounted during a future spacewalk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expedition 36 Flight Engineers Fyodor Yurchikhin and Alexander Misurkin closed the Pirs docking compartment hatch officially ending their spacewalk at 6:05 p.m. EDT.
