Veteran cosmonaut Artemyev can also be getting for the fourth spacewalk of his profession at present focused for April 18. He and first-time space-flyer Denis Matveev are accumulating their spacewalk instruments and configuring the Poisk module the place they may exit of their Orlan spacesuits in lower than two weeks. The duo is reviewing the procedures crucial to arrange the Nauka multipurpose laboratory module for Europe’s first station robotic arm. Cosmonaut and Flight Engineer Sergey Korsakov spent the day servicing air con gear within the orbiting lab’s Russian section.
