Williams & Meir Complete Second Spacewalk | International Space Station

Expedition 74 flight engineer and European Space Agency astronaut Sophie Adenot: "Success for the US EVA-95!🎉"

"NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Chris Williams carried out a second spacewalk together yesterday, and Canadarm2 is in good configuration for a very soon return to 100% operational mode. Bravo to all the teams that contributed to this success!"

NASA flight engineers Chris Williams and Jessica Meir concluded their second spacewalk together on Tuesday after successfully replacing a malfunctioning wrist joint on the Canadarm2 robotic arm. The duo spent seven hours and 20 minutes on Canadarm2’s fourth repair job since its installation on April 26, 2001. Initial checkouts of the arm by flight controllers on the ground indicate the arm is functioning well and additional checkouts and verification will continue in the coming days.
