NASA astronaut Jessica Meir and ESA astronaut Sophie Adenot performed a spacewalk to carry out routine maintenance on the International Space Station on Tuesday (September 1).

According to NASA, the astronauts installed a new retroreflector on the Harmony module and replaced a high-definition camera, among other maintenance tasks.

Toward the end of the six-hour, 49-minute spacewalk, Adenot reported an issue with mobility in her left arm to mission control and both went back safely inside the ISS.
