The Week in SpaceJune 8-14, 2009
![]() Running in Space Astronaut Garrett Reisman, Expedition 16 flight engineer, appears in mid-stride in front of one of the International Space Station’s Solar Power Arrays as construction and maintenance continue on the ISS in March 2008. During a seven-hour and one-minute spacewalk, Reisman and astronaut Rick Linnehan, STS-123 mission specialist, prepared the Japanese Logistics Module Pressurized Section for removal from space shuttle Endeavour’s payload bay, opened the Centerline Berthing Camera System on top of the Harmony module, removed the Passive Common Berthing Mechanism, and installed both of the Orbital Replacement Unit tool change-out mechanisms on the Canadian-built Dextre robotic system, the final element of the station’s Mobile Servicing System.
