CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Spacewalking astronauts are back outside working to revitalize a cosmic ray detector at the International Space Station.
Italy’s Luca Parmitano and NASA’s Andrew Morgan will cut into the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer on Friday. They’ll slice through eight stainless steel tubes, using hardware store-type bolt cutters. That will set the stage to install new coolant pumps during the third spacewalk on Dec. 2.
