Second STS-129 Spacewalk Complete

Spacewalkers Mike Foreman and Randy Bresnik completed a six-hour, eight-minute spacewalk at 3:39 p.m. EST.

The spacewalking pair finished all their assigned work way ahead of schedule and completed several get-ahead tasks. They deployed the last two of the Payload Attach Systems that remained on the outside of the International Space Station.

This was the second of three STS-129 spacewalks, the 229th conducted by U.S. astronauts, the fifth for Foreman and the first for Bresnik. It was the 135th in support of International Space Station assembly and maintenance, totaling 843 hours, 36 minutes. It was the 107th spacewalk out of the space station, totaling 656 hours, 21 minutes.
