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 1 p.m. CDT 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 5:40 p.m. CDT June 1, with live
coverage starting at 4:30 p.m. CDT 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.
