NASA SETS PREVIEW, BROADCAST OF NEXT STATION SPACEWALK
NASA will preview a June 1 spacewalk by the 13th International Space
Station crew during a May 30 news conference. Both events will be
broadcast live on NASA Television.
The May 30 briefing will be held at 2 p.m. EDT at NASA's Johnson Space
Center in Houston. Media may ask questions from participating NASA
locations. Managers will outline the spacewalk and provide a general
status of the station. The briefers are:
-- Kirk Shireman, International Space Station deputy program manager
-- Holly Ridings, Expedition 13 EVA flight director
-- Paul Boehm, Expedition 13 lead EVA officer
The five and a half hour spacewalk begins at 6:40 p.m. EDT June 1,
with live coverage starting at 5:30 p.m. EDT on NASA TV. It's the
first of two spacewalks for Expedition 13 Commander Pavel Vinogradov
and Flight Engineer Jeff Williams during their six-month mission.
Clad in Russian Orlan space suits, Vinogradov and Williams will exit
the station from the Pirs airlock. They will install a new valve on
the Zvezda Service Module for the station's Russian oxygen-generation
system. They'll also collect experiments and install a new TV camera
on the station's rail car system.
NASA TV's Public, Education and Media channels are available on an
MPEG-2 digital C-band signal accessed via satellite AMC-6; 72 degrees
west longitude, transponder 17C, 4040 MHz, vertical polarization. In
Alaska and Hawaii, they're on AMC-7; 137 degrees west longitude,
transponder 18C, at 4060 MHz, horizontal polarization.
