14 May 2009 - UT 7h 20m Feustel and J.Grunsfeld; mission STS-125
Replacing a wide field camera. They also swapped out three batteries and installed a mechanism for a spacecraft to capture for de-orbit at the end of the telescope′s life.
16 May 2009 - UT 6h 36m Feustel and J.Grunsfeld; mission STS-125
Installing the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph, a device that will perform spectroscopy, the science of breaking up light into its individual components. The astronauts also conducted repairs to the Advanced Camera for Surveys, which has experienced power failures, causing two of the telescope′s three observing channels to stop operating
18 May 2009 - UT 7h 02m Feustel and J.Grunsfeld; mission STS-125
Replacing a sensor needed for pointing the telescope and install another blanket on Hubble′s exterior.
20 May 2011 UT 6h 19m Feustel and G. Chamitoff; mission ISS-Exp.
They retrieved two experiments and install a new package of experiments on ELC-2. Next they installed jumpers between segments on the left-side truss, for ammonia refills; vent nitrogen from an ammonia servicer; and installed an external wireless communication antenna on the Destiny laboratory that will provide wireless communication to the Express Logistics Carriers mounted on the station′s truss.
22 May 2011 UT 8h 07m Feustel and M. Fincke; mission ISS-Exp.
The astronauts refilled radiators with ammonia. They also completed venting the early ammonia system, lubricated a left-side solar joint and parts of Dextre.
25 May 2011 UT 6h 54m Feustel and M. Fincke; mission ISS-Exp.
Installing a grapple, or handle for the robotic arm on the station to grab, on the Zarya module to support robotic operations based from the Russian segment. They also installed additional cables to provide backup power to the Russian portion of the space station.
29 Mar 2018 UT 6h 10m Feustel and R. Arnold; mission ISS-Exp.55
They installed wireless communications equipment on the station′s Tranquility module to enhance payload data processing for the ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station (ECOSTRESS) experiment. The crew members also swapped out high-definition video cameras on the port truss of the station′s backbone and removed aging hoses from a cooling component on the station′s truss.
16 May 2018 - 6h 31m Feustel and R. Arnold; mission ISS-Exp.55
They moved a component called a Pump Flow Control Subassembly (PFCS) from a spare parts platform on the station′s truss "backbone" to the Special Purpose Dexterous Manipulator (Dextre) robotic arm. The spacewalkers removed a failed PFCS and return it to the spare parts depot. They also replaced a camera system on the Destiny Laboratory and a communications receiver.
14 Jun 2018 - 6h 49m Feustel and R. Arnold; mission ISS-Exp.55
They installed a pair of brackets and high-definition cameras on the Harmony module that will help commercial crew vehicles align with the international docking adapter at the forward end of Harmony. The crew also replaced a camera on the station′s starboard truss.
Total: 61h 48m EVAs: 9
