TL;DR

Two Russian cosmonauts, Sergei Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev, will conduct a five-hour extravehicular activity outside the ISS to install a solar radiation experiment on the Zvezda module and remove hardware from Poisk and Nauka, with a possible photo of a Kurs antenna on Progress 94 if time allows. Coverage starts at 9:45 a.m. EDT (1345 GMT), with the EVA planned to begin around 10:15 a.m. EDT. Kud-Sverchkov has flown a spacewalk before, while Mikaev is on his first EVA; this is the second spacewalk of 2026.
