>live coverage of US spacewalks

...unless something odd appears in the background of the feed, then the coverage will mysteriously shut off for a while.

(Comment is a nod to the UFOlogists who claim this happens any time an ISS camera catches an unusual object or light in its feed)

Excerpt:

>NASA will provide live coverage of the first spacewalk beginning at 6 a.m. EST on Saturday, Dec. 3 on NASA Television, the NASA app, and the agency’s website. The spacewalk is scheduled to begin at 7:25 a.m. and last about seven hours.

>NASA astronauts Josh Cassada and Frank Rubio will exit the station’s Quest airlock to install an International Space Station Roll-Out Solar Array (iROSA) to augment power generation for the 3A power channel on the station’s starboard truss structure.

>This spacewalking task will restore redundancy for affected station systems following unexpected tripping observed on the 1B channel Nov. 26. By isolating a section of the impacted array, which was one of several damaged strings, the goal is to restore 75% of the array’s functionality.

>Cassada and Rubio are scheduled to conduct the next U.S. spacewalk Dec.19, this time to install an iROSA on the 4A power channel on the port truss.

Some people watch football, some people watch movies. I find this fascinating.

Haha! Silly me thought that live coverage, meant life insurance coverage. Then I read it again
