Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by Robert Pearlman on 06-29-2026 02:32 PM NASA update <blockquote><font size="+0">[b]Astronauts Ready for Tuesday Spacewalk[/b]</font> Mission managers have given the final go for NASA flight engineers Chris Williams and Jessica Meir to begin a spacewalk at 8:35 a.m. EDT on Tuesday, June 30. Williams and Meir will work in the vacuum of space for about six hours and 40 minutes and replace a malfunctioning wrist joint on the Canadarm2 robotic arm that was installed on the orbital outpost on April 26, 2001. This will be the duo's second spacewalk together. NASA+ will begin its live coverage at 7 a.m. EDT on June 30. Williams and Meir spent Monday organizing spacewalking tools and checking spacesuits inside the Quest airlock where they will exit the space station for the robotics maintenance job. Flight engineers Jack Hathaway of NASA and Sophie Adenot of ESA (European Space Agency) assisted the upcoming spacewalkers with the tool work and studied the delicate maneuvers they will use to position the Canadarm2 for its repair job. Hathaway and Adenot will monitor the spacewalkers on Tuesday, help them in and out of their suits, and carefully maneuver Canadarm2 into position for repair access. All four astronauts gathered together at the end of Monday's shift for a final procedures review and a readiness conference with specialists on the ground.</blockquote>
