Following LSI-RESTLESS EVA

Huddin Kerman performs the program's second EVA — first to board, now first to walk

The engineer who first stepped through LSI 1's hatch also deployed the RESTLESS arrays outside it. Two firsts. Same kerbal.

She was the first through the hatch. She was also the one outside it.

Huddin Kerman has performed the MSC program's second extravehicular activity. The engineer — the same kerbal who was first to step aboard LSI 1 during MSC-003's arrival checkout — suited up to deploy the RESTLESS solar arrays and extend the station's power hardware as part of the LSI-RESTLESS integration sequence. The EVA was completed nominally.

The only prior EVA in MSC history is Valentina Kerman's on MSC-002, a mission defined by what was found wrong outside — a non-compliant docking port, an inoperable airlock — and the subsequent decision to decommission the Basic Station. Huddin's EVA is different in character. The hardware worked. The arrays deployed. The station gained.

Huddin Kerman's program record now reads: first kerbal to board LSI 1, second kerbal to perform an EVA, currently aboard LSI 1 pending the next crew rotation. When Jedidiah Kerman returns with the adapter crew module, Huddin and Katdorf Kerman will have held the station for the longest continuous stretch of the program to date.
