Astronauts Take Selfies During Six-Hour Spacewalk
Published at
European Space Agency(HOUSTON) — Astronauts Alexander Gerst, who is German, and Reid Wiseman, an American, snapped out of this world selfies during a six-hour mission outside the International Space Station on Tuesday.
The two spacewalk rookies had a “perfect walk” and were able to accomplish everything on their “to do” list, according to the European Space Agency, including moving a pump, fixing a light and upgrading the power supply.
And at the end of the day, the pair came away with two pretty awesome selfies to remember the moment.
