Watch live Saturday: Space station astronauts are taking a spacewalk
By Space.com Staff an hour ago
Two astronauts are taking a spacewalk outside the International Space Station on Saturday (March 13), and you can watch all the action live online.
NASA astronauts Victor Glover and Mike Hopkins will spend about 6.5 hours working outside the orbiting laboratory to work on a series of upgrades. It will be the second spacewalk so far this month, following another excursion by NASA astronaut Kate Rubins and JAXA astronaut Soichi Noguchi, on March 5.
The spacewalkers are scheduled to exit through the Quest airlock at approximately 7:30 a.m. EST (1230 GMT), and NASA TV will provide live coverage beginning at 6 a.m. EST (1100 GMT). You can watch it live in the window above, courtesy of NASA, or directly via NASA TV or on YouTube.
From NASA:
Two NASA astronauts will conduct the fifth spacewalk of the year Saturday, March 13, to complete several systems upgrades to the International Space Station. Live coverage will begin at 6 a.m. EST on NASA Television, the NASA app, and the agency’s website.
