Russian cosmonauts will work more than 6 hours in open space – Popular Mechanics

The main objectives of the output:
– Running NS-1 nanosatellite designed for testing and refinement of the underlying platform and basic electronic devices nanoklassa modules on space education program “Radioskaf” (OAO Rocket and Space Corporation “Energia”. C . Korolyov.).

The satellite has dimensions of 100x100x100 mm, weight 1.5 kg, and transmits data on a frequency of 437.025 MHz amateur radio band. Nano-satellite transmits to Earth in the form of news reports telegraph Morse code identification signal; Images recorded in the memory of the satellite; camera images from space satellite on request from the earth; telemetry (voltage, current, temperature, all the blocks nanosatellite).

– Mounting scientific equipment «Expose-R» to deliver universal workplace II plane working compartment large diameter service module “Zvezda».

– Installation clip for additional locking mechanical lock adapter remote power active phased array (AESA) II-III between the planes of the ring handrail working compartment large diameter service module “Zvezda».

Installation of remote power AFAR held during spacewalks June 19, 2014 to establish a connection with the earth through ISS relay satellites of the “Beam».

– Within the space experiment “Test” Alexander Skvortsov and Oleg Artemyev using scientific equipment to hold sampling with porthole №13 working compartment of small diameter to collect available on the ISS microorganisms.

– Set the device BKDO (control unit pressure and deposition) on small research module “Search” (MRM-2).

– Removing the removable cassette container №1-M2 and installing removable cassette tape container №2-M2 MIM-2.

– Removing the space experiment 2a “Endurance” on MIM -2.

– Removing the third container “Biorisk-MSN” in the docking bay, “Pierce».

– Carrying photographing screen-vacuum thermal insulation of the outer surface of the Russian segment of the ISS.

ISS-40/41 Alexander Skvortsov and Oleg Artemyev to be done on the outside of the station about 6 hours 16 minutes. This is the second output Skvortsov and Artemyev EVA during the expedition. Other crew members – cosmonaut Maxim Suraev Roscosmos, astronauts Steven Swanson, Reid Wiseman (NASA) and Alexander Gerst (ESA) will provide support of their release on board the station.
