Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin conduct a spacewalk August 9 out of the Poisk module at the International Space Station to attach three debris shields to the nearby Rassvet module where other hardware had been stowed prior to their relocation to the Nauka Multipurpose Laboratory Module. The two cosmonauts then attached a portable workstation to the end of the European Robotic Arm, allowing Prokopyev to ride at the end of the arm to test its sturdiness as it was operated from inside Nauka by cosmonaut Andrey Fedyayev. It was the 267th spacewalk in support of space station assembly, maintenance and upgrades, the eighth in Prokopyev’s career and the sixth for Petelin.
