Two Russian cosmonauts, Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky, carried out a six-hour spacewalk outside the ISS on Oct. 16, 2025. They installed the Ekran-M semiconductor experiment for growing ultra-thin materials in microgravity and safely jettisoned an outdated high-definition camera that will burn up upon re-entry.Two Russian cosmonauts, Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky, carried out a six-hour spacewalk outside the ISS on Oct. 16, 2025.
