NASA astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara took their first spacewalk outside the International Space Station on Wednesday, November 1, to remove electronics gear and replace hardware supporting the station's solar arrays.
The spacewalk began at 5:35 p.m. IST and is expected to last for approximately six and a half hours.
Moghbeli (wearing the suit with red stripes) and O'Hara (wearing the unmarked suit) arrived at the ISS earlier this year and are both crew members of Expedition 70, which began on September 27.
This is the first spacewalk for both astronauts.
