(NASA. ISS. EVA. SATCHER STS-129) Extravehicular activity in Earth orbit. Astronaut Robert L. Satcher Jr., STS-129 mission specialist, participates in the mission's first extravehicular activity (EVA) session as construction and maintenance continue on the International Space Station. During the six-hour, 37-minute EVA, Satcher and Mission Specialist astronaut Mike Foreman (out of frame) installed a spare S-band antenna structural assembly on the Z1 segment of the station's truss, or backbone. Foreman and Satcher also installed a set of cables for a future space-to-ground antenna on the Destiny lab, and replaced a handrail on the Unity node with a new bracket used to route an ammonia cable that will be needed for the Tranquility node when it is delivered next year. The two astronauts also repositioned a cable connector on Unity, checked the cable connections on the S0 truss and lubricated the locking hooks on the Kibo robotic arm and the station's mobile base system.Vintage chromogenic print.
