Spacewalkers face challenges with bolts, but complete successful mission

Astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara completed their first spacewalk to replace a bearing assembly in one of the International Space Station's solar array rotation mechanisms. However, they were unable to retrieve a failed communications component due to difficulties with tight bolts. The spacewalk, the fourth all-female excursion, took longer than expected, resulting in a delay. Moghbeli and O'Hara successfully completed their tasks and returned to the Quest airlock after a 6-hour 42-minute spacewalk.
