EDITORIAL USE. Video shows commander Anatoly Solovyev (red-striped Orlan) riding the Strela boom. He moves toward the damaged Spektr module. NASA flight engineer Michael Foale steadies the crane during Russian spacewalk EVA 2.

The six-hour sortie sought close-up views of the scar left by Progress M-34 on 25 June 1997 and realigned Spektr’s solar-array yokes. Tethered 400 km above Earth, the pair found no puncture. They captured detailed imagery for engineers. Footage shows hatch egress, boom maneuvers, exterior inspection, and array adjustments. It ends with safe Kvant-2 ingress at 07:07 UTC. Clean 4:3 PAL master; 1080 p and 4 K AI upscales available.
