[b]Spacewalkers to replace failed power regulator[/b] Expedition 41 flight engineers Reid Wiseman and Butch Wilmore will venture out on a six-and-a-half hour spacewalk on Wednesday (Oct. 15) to remove and replace a power regulator, known as a sequential shunt unit, on the starboard truss of the International Space Station. The regulator failed in May. The two spacewalkers will also move TV and camera equipment to prepare for the relocation of the Leonardo Permanent Multipurpose Module (PMM) to accommodate the future installation of new docking adapters for U.S. commercial crew vehicles.
