Fossum and Garan Conduct Mission’s Third Spacewalk

Spacewalkers Mike Fossum and Ron Garan began the mission's third spacewalk at 9:55 a.m. EDT and left the International Space Station’s Quest airlock. STS-124 Commander Mark Kelly helped the spacewalkers get ready for the 6.5-hour excursion. During the two previous spacewalks Fossum and Garan outfitted Japan’s Kibo module and did station maintenance tasks. Today, they are replacing a nitrogen tank assembly, installing TV equipment and removing a thermal cover from Japan’s new robotic arm. More
