Station Crew Completes Successful Spacewalk International Space Station crewmembers wound up a successful spacewalk Monday morning, finishing preparations to welcome the Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV). They closed the airlock hatch at 5:55 a.m. EST to end their mission's second and final planned excursion outside. Commander Leroy Chiao and Flight Engineer Salizhan Sharipov installed on the Zvezda Service Module the final three antennas of a six-antenna set for the ATV, an unpiloted European cargo carrier scheduled to make its first trip to the Station early next year.
