The satellites, each of which has a mass of about 11 pounds, have a variety of purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the satellites, with casings made using 3-D printing technology, will test the effect of the low-Earth-orbit environment on the composition of 3-D printed materials. Another satellite contains recorded greetings to the people of Earth in 11 languages. A third satellite commemorates the 60th anniversary of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/multimedia\/imagegallery\/image_feature_924.html\" rel=\"noopener\">Sputnik 1<\/a> launch and the 160th anniversary of the birth of Russian scientist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/audience\/foreducators\/rocketry\/home\/konstantin-tsiolkovsky.html\" rel=\"noopener\">Konstantin Tsiolkovsky<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spacewalkers also will collect residue samples from various locations outside the Russian segment of the station and install handrails and struts to facilitate future excursions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yurchikhin will be designated extravehicular crew member 1 (EV1) for this spacewalk, the ninth of his career. Ryazanskiy, embarking on his fourth spacewalk, will be extravehicular crew member 2 (EV2). Both will wear Russian Orlan spacesuits bearing blue stripes. The spacewalk will be the 202nd in support of space station assembly and maintenance and the seventh spacewalk this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the full NASA TV schedule and video streaming information at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"j2kyDFWm8z\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/nasatv\/\">NASA TV Live<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"“NASA TV Live” — NASA\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/nasatv\/embed\/#?secret=UvIZ6Rlh10#?secret=j2kyDFWm8z\" data-secret=\"j2kyDFWm8z\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Get breaking news, images and features from the station on Instagram and Twitter at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>http:\/\/instagram.com\/iss<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>and<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a class=\"twitter-timeline\" data-width=\"500\" data-height=\"750\" data-dnt=\"true\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Space_Station?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">Tweets by Space_Station<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>-end-<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kathryn Hambleton<br>\nHeadquarters, Washington<br>\n202-358-1100<br>\nkathryn.hambleton@nasa.gov<br>\nDan Huot<br>\nJohnson Space Center, Houston<br>\n281-483-5111<br>\ndaniel.g.huot@nasa.gov<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two Russian cosmonauts will venture outside the International Space Station Thursday, Aug. 17, to deploy several nanosatellites, collect research samples and perform structural maintenance.
