An animation of U.S. spacewalk 91 scheduled for Thurs. Jan. 16, when NASA astronauts Nick Hague and Suni Williams will exit the station’s Quest airlock to replace a rate gyro assembly that helps provide orientation control for the station, install patches for damaged areas of light filters for an x-ray telescope called Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) and replace a reflector device used for navigational data on one of the international docking adapters. Additionally, the pair will check access areas and connector tools that will be used for future maintenance work on the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer. This animation was narrated by spacewalk flight director Nicole McElroy.
