ISS: Expedition 35

Launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome (Pavel Vinogradov, Aleksandr Misurkin and Christopher Cassidy with Soyuz TMA-08M). Roman Romanenko, Chris Hadfield and Thomas Marshburn were onboard since December 21, 2012 (arrival with Soyuz TMA-07M).

The first EVA was performed by Pavel Vinogradov and Roman Romanenko on April 19, 2013 (6h 38m). They installed and connected the Obstanovka plasma wave experiment, a Russian investigation into space weather in Earth’s upper atmosphere. This task includes the planned jettison of two probe containers and a cable reel. They then removed a container from the Russian experiment Biorisk, which looks at the effects of microbial bacteria and fungus on structural materials used in spacecraft construction.

A leak of ammonia coolant from the area near or at the location of a Pump and Flow Control Subassembly was detected on May 09, 2013, prompting engineers and flight controllers to begin plans to support the spacewalk. The device contains the mechanical systems that drive the cooling functions for the port truss.

Christopher Cassidy and Thomas Marshburn performed this spacewalk on May 11, 2013 (5h 30m). The astronauts inspected and replaced of a pump controller box on the station’s far port truss (P6) suspected of leaking ammonia coolant.
