International Space Station (ISS) program managers are currently hard at work preparing for at least one, and potentially two, upcoming and unplanned spacewalks to repair external faults relating to two of the station’s electrical power channels. The spacewalks would both be performed within the next month by experienced spacewalkers Sunita Williams of NASA and Aki Hoshide of Japan, prior to their return to Earth on November 19.
