NASA astronauts Tracy C. Dyson and Matthew Dominick are scheduled to conduct a spacewalk on Thursday at 8am ET to retrieve radio hardware and swab the outer surfaces of the International Space Station for microbes. The spacewalk aims to learn about microorganisms surviving in the harsh space environment and their potential contamination of planetary bodies during future missions.
