Two Russian cosmonauts performed a spacewalk outside the International Space Station Monday to begin activation of a robotic arm. Oleg Artemyev and Denis Matveev spent six hours and 37 minutes outside the station during a spacewalk that started at about 11 am EDT (1500 GMT). The spacewalk was the first of two planned this month to begin commissioning the European Robotic Arm on the Nauka module. The two cosmonauts will perform a second spacewalk next Thursday.
