Roscosmos cosmonauts completed work outside the ISS

“The exit hatch of the Poisk module was closed on April 29 at 01:41 Moscow time,” the state corporation said in a statement.

During the time the cosmonauts were outside the ISS, the specialists managed to dismantle and discard the covers of the screen-vacuum thermal insulation, install three new handrails and carry out work with the ERA manipulator.

The extravehicular activity took just over seven hours. 

Oleg Artemiev and Denis Matveev, while working outside the ISS, also deployed in outer space a copy of the Banner of Victory in the Great Patriotic War.
