Alexei Ovchinin laid his legs at the end of the robotic ERA manipulator located outside the ISS, at the end of the exit to an open space, which lasted 7 hours and 17 minutes. The movement of the manipulator 11. 3 meters in length from the inside of the station was led by another Russian astronologist Alexander Gorbunov.

At the right point, Ovchinin threw unnecessary equipment, collected outside the space station, which is now space debris and should burn in the Earth's atmosphere. Ovchinin and Wagner went out into the spaced space through the gateway of the Russian search module. After that, they went to the module "Star", where they installed a new X -ray spectrometer. With its help, scientists will monitor space in the X -ray range of wavelengths of light every 72 days for three years.

Astronauts also installed new electrical connecting panels on the module "Star", and Ovchinin's old panels were thrown into space along with other unnecessary equipment. Astronauts collected devices that conducted experiments on the stability and check of the reaction of materials and biological samples in open space. These experiments will be delivered to the ground for further study.

At the end of their mission outside the ISS, astronauts threw towels into space, which they wiped the gloves of their suites before re -entering the gateway "Search". After a limited time of stay in the open space, astronauts have refused to move the external panel of operating the robotic ERA manipulator. But this is not critical for the space station.

This output into the open space was already 272 in the account, which was made by astronauts with the ISS, since 1998 to carry out the service and modernization of the station. It was also the first exit to the open space during the 72nd expedition to the ISS and the third, which was carried out by astronauts at the space station this year. In 2024, there were also 5 more exits into the open space.

Four outputs made Chinese astronauts outside the Tianun Space Station and one exit was first made by the Polars Dawn space tourists outside the Crew Dragon SpaceX spacecraft. Focus has already written that Chinese astronauts recently set a new world record for the duration of being in open space. It is now 9 hours and 6 minutes. Focus also wrote that astronomers were knocked down from the panther, because they found a galaxy that they could not explain.
