Kotov, Expedition 15 flight engineer representing Russia's Federal Space Agency, wearing a Russian Orlan spacesuit, participates in a session of extravehicular activity (EVA). Among other tasks, Kotov and cosmonaut Fyodor N. Yurchikhin (out of frame), commander representing Russia's Federal Space Agency, retrieved the "Christmas tree" bundle of three packages of 17 protective debris panels for installation around the forward cone of the Zvezda Service Module of the International Space Station and to install the first set of those panels.
