Five hours, 45 minutes into today's spacewalk, Mike Fossum and Ron Garan removed a failed external television camera from the port truss and will bring it inside the International Space Station after the spacewalk. Astronauts will replace the camera's power supply and return it to its position during Sunday's third spacewalk.
Fossum has been asked to inspect the space station's port Solar Alpha Rotary Joint, or SARJ. Unlike the starboard SARJ, the port SARJ has performed flawlessly. The inspection is planned to ensure the port SARJ remains in good condition.
