Outside the International Space Station, Expedition 41 Commander Max Suraev (Soo-RYE’-uhv) and Flight Engineer Alexander Samokutyaev (Sah-moe-KOO’-tee-yah-yev) of the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) conducted a spacewalk Oct. 22. They removed and jettisoned experiment hardware and antennas no longer needed on the Russian segment of the complex and performed a detailed photographic survey of the exterior of the Russian modules. It was the third spacewalk in as many weeks for Expedition 41 crewmembers on the station, the 184th in support of space station assembly and maintenance, and the second for both Suraev and Samokutyaev.

SpaceX's CRS-4 Dragon Spacecraft which has spent just over a month at the International Space Station was removed in what is called 'unberthing' from it's docking port by the Robotic Arm stationed on the outside of the complex today, October 25th. The arm was stretched out and Dragon released for it to fly away via it's thrusters. Dragon will continue to depart the vicinity of the ISS before performing a re-entry deorbit burn which will slow the craft down enough to fall into Earth's atmosphere. Dragon is scheduled to make a landing in the Pacific Ocean at 19:39 UTC.

On Sept. 28, NASA’s Orion spacecraft was moved from the Kennedy Space Center Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility (PHSF) to the center’s Launch Abort System Facility (LASF). Orion, which was fueled with ammonia and hyper-propellants in the PHSF, will be fitted with its launch abort system in the LASF in preparation for its flight test. Orion is being built to send humans farther than ever before, including to an asteroid and Mars. Although the spacecraft will be uncrewed during its December flight test, the crew module will be used to transport astronauts safely to and from space on future missions. Orion will provide living quarters for up t
