Kotov and Ryazanskiy also installed a foot restraint to the workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After routing data and telemetry cables for the medium resolution camera, Kotov jettisoned the cable reel opposite of the station\u2019s direction of travel for disposal.<\/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-cover \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"947\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg?w=947\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"Spacewalkers Oleg Kotov and Sergey Ryazanskiy remove the high resolution camera they installed earlier during Friday's spacewalk.\" style=\"transform: scale(1); transform-origin: 100% 0%; object-position: 100% 0%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg 947w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg?resize=300,228 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg?resize=768,584 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg?resize=400,304 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg?resize=600,456 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613b.jpg?resize=900,684 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 947px) 100vw, 947px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Spacewalkers Oleg Kotov and Sergey Ryazanskiy remove the high resolution camera they installed earlier during Friday’s spacewalk.<\/div><div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA TV<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>When the flight control team at the Russian Mission Control Center outside Moscow did not see the expected telemetry and electrical connectivity from the medium and high resolution cameras, Kotov and Ryazanskiy were directed to remove the cameras and return them to the airlock for further analysis.  The spacewalkers also were instructed to take detailed photographs of the electrical connectors mated earlier for additional review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to their work with the two cameras, the spacewalkers also removed the Vsplesk experiment package and jettisoned it. Vsplesk, installed during an Expedition 17 spacewalk in July 2008, was designed to monitor seismic effects using high-energy particle streams in the near-Earth environment. Kotov and Ryazanskiy replaced it with  hardware for a more sophisticated earthquake-monitoring experiment, Seismoprognoz, which they attached to a Zvezda handrail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of the issue in activating the cameras, Kotov and Ryazanskiy did not have time to complete the all of their planned tasks, which included the jettisoning of a frame that once held three Micro-Particles Capturer and Space Environment Exposure Device (MPAC & SEED) units for a Japanese space exposure study and the installation of a payload boom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Friday’s spacewalk eclipsed the record for the longest Russian spacewalk set by Expedition 36 Flight Engineers Fyodor Yurchikhin and Alexander Misurkin, who conducted a 7-hour, 29 minute excursion on Aug. 16. <\/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-cover \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?w=1280\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"This graphic shows the locations of the six Expedition 38 crew members during Friday's Russian spacewalk.\" style=\"transform: scale(1.2); transform-origin: 50% 50%; object-position: 50% 50%; object-fit: cover;\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=768,432 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=1024,576 1024w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=400,225 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=600,338 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=900,506 900w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/pic-122613c.jpg?resize=1200,675 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\"><div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">This graphic shows the locations of the six Expedition 38 crew members during Friday’s Russian spacewalk.<\/div><div class=\"hds-credits\">NASA TV<\/div><\/figcaption><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<p>With the completion of his fifth spacewalk, Kotov now has 30 hours and 43 minutes of total spacewalking time.

The remaining three crew members \u2013 Flight Engineers Rick Mastracchio, Koichi Wakata and Mikhail Tyurin \u2013 had access to the Zarya module and the entirety of the U.S. segment of the station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Friday\u2019s Russian spacewalk was not related to a recent pair of U.S. spacewalks to replace a faulty ammonia coolant pump module.
