Sophie Adenot completes second spacewalk from the International Space Station
The French astronaut went outside the ISS again on August 25 to replace an antenna, a week after becoming the first French woman to carry out a spacewalk.
French astronaut Sophie Adenot carried out a second spacewalk from the International Space Station on August 25, returning outside the orbiting laboratory to replace an antenna. The outing came one week after she became the first French woman to perform a spacewalk.
Adenot had first gone outside the station on August 18, according to the reports. Her latest task was focused on equipment work rather than a longer external mission.
The two spacewalks took place during her current stay aboard the ISS, which is used for maintenance and scientific operations in orbit. The station continues to host crews from multiple countries on rotating missions.
