Astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, who have been on an unexpectedly monthslong assignment after serving on Boeing’s Starliner crewed test flight, are conducting a spacewalk Thursday. The duo is venturing outside the International Space Station to remove degraded radio communications hardware.

Starliner co-pilot Sunita Williams is now the world's most experienced female spacewalker, moving up to number four overall.

The record-breaking spacewalk set a new women's record for total spacewalking time and saw the astronauts finally remove faulty radio communications hardware, among other tasks.
