NASA astronauts Laurel O’Hara and Jasmine Mogbeli will depart from the International Space Station on Wednesday, November 1, to perform maintenance on the exterior of the International Space Station.

As reported by Ukrinform, this was reported on the blog of the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

NASA astronauts Laurel O’Hara and Jasmine Mogbeli will exit the Quest station’s airlock to remove the electronic box called the Radio Frequency Group, which is part of the communications antenna system.

They will also replace one of the 12 thrust bearings in the solar rotating coupler of the station’s port port. These support bearings allow the station’s solar cells to track the Sun.

It is stated that their launch into space was previously planned for Monday, October 30.

For Mogbeli and O’Hara, this will be their first spacewalk.

As Ukrinform reported, two weeks ago the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) canceled the launch of astronauts into space due to a coolant leak from the spare radiator of the Russian Nauka module on the ISS.
