Watch: Astronauts set out on rare all-female spacewalk
For the sixth time in history, a team of two women completed a spacewalk outside the International Space Station.
Nasa astronaut Jessica Meir and French astronaut Sophie Adenot suited up for a 6.5-hour spacewalk.
Meir previously made history in 2019 when she and Nasa astronaut Christina Koch completed the first ever all-female spacewalk.
This event marked the 284th spacewalk in support of space station assembly, maintenance and upgrades, and the seventh spacewalk of the year.
