[b]First of three cable-routing EVAs ends[/b] Expedition 42 commander Butch Wilmore and flight engineer Terry Virts are back inside the International Space Station following their successful six hour, 41 minute spacewalk. The first of the pairs' three scheduled outings together ended at 1:26 p.m. CST (1926 GMT) on Saturday (Feb. 21). During the spacewalk, Wilmore and Virts completed all the work set out for them, routing cables as part of a reconfiguration of the space station to enable commercial crew spacecraft to dock in the coming years. This was Wilmore's second spacewalk and Virts first. It was the 185th EVA in support of space station assembly and maintenance. The two are scheduled to venture outside the space station again on Wednesday, Feb. 25 and Sunday, March 1.
