[Music continues]Russian spacewalk 53 wil Oleg Artimyev, EV-1 in the red stripes,
and Denis Madveev, EV-2 in the blue stripes.
To start the spacewalk the crew will egress the airlock
with a crew lock bag and tool carrier.
After turning on their cameras and lights, both crew will start translating down
the Strela boom from Poisk to the Nauka module.
After translating nadir to the solar arrays, EV-1 and EV-2
will take separate translation paths to the European Robotic Arm or ERA.
EV-1 and EV-2 will work to remove insulation covers on the ERA end effectors
Afterwards, they'll stow the crew lock bag and tool carrier on handrail 4575.
Oleg will gather and jettison
the covers in the station aft direction.
Once complete with imagery, EV-1 releases
the launch lock near the end effector joint as EV-2 retrieves the tool carrier.

Denis will then back off the grapple point from the end effector.
[Music]
EV-2 will monitor motion of the end effector joint.
Once the end effector has completed its first motion, EV-1 will remove
a launch lock that will then lead to an additional motion of the end effector.
[Music]
The crew will work together
to continue releasing various ERA launch locks, at which point the
ERA shoulder limb will be rotated to allow handrails to be installed.
[Music]
As the crew verifies safe motion,
ERA will be maneuvered to grapple onto Nauka base point one.
The crew translates to the remaining end effector
to repeat the process of releasing launch locks.
[Music]
The end effector is moved away from structure
slightly to allow access to additional launch locks.
[Music]
Oleg and Denis
will translate to provide safe motion calls for the next ERA maneuvers.
[Music]
ERA will grapple its second end effector onto base point two.
[Music]
The team will then ungrapple from base point one
and maneuver over to base point three.
[Music]
Crew will gather their tools and translate Zenith up the Nauka module
and Strela boom to the Poisk airlock.
[Music]
There, the crew will stow their bags
and ingress ending Russian spacewalk 53.
