Spacewalk serendipity

ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano posted this image of his first spacewalk to service the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer AMS-02 with the caption: While on the Canadarm2 robotic arm, I took a picture of the MRM2 (Multi-Research Module 2). At that exact, serendipitous moment, Oleg was also snapping a picture from the MRM2 window…

This was the first in a series of complex AMS-02 spacewalks that Luca and NASA astronaut Andrew Morgan will perform, and the first time a European astronaut held the leading spacewalk role of EV1.
