Two NASA astronauts successfully completed a spacewalk outside the International Space Station Thursday. Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers wrapped up the spacewalk, lasting five hours and 44 minutes, at 2:49 pm EDT (1849 GMT). The two completed their primary tasks of relocating a communications antenna and installing a mounting bracket for a new solar array. They also completed some additional "get-ahead" tasks while outside the station. The spacewalk was McClain's third and the first for Ayers.
