dewlineI'm watching this particular spacewalk live via NASA's YouTube channel as I type this. To say that I am amazed at what I'm seeing right now...maybe not an understatement.
Quoting the summary in full: "After more than 20 years, the International Space Station is getting new solar arrays, and you have the chance to watch it LIVE during a spacewalk! On June 16, Shane Kimbrough of NASA Astronauts and Thomas Pesquet of the European Space Agency will venture into the vacuum of space for ~6.5 hours to install and deploy two roll-out solar arrays on the space station. "
And Marc Garneau - now the Canadian federal minister of transportation - just got name-checked during this live feed because of his own space-walking history...
