Sunita Williams becomes the most experienced female spacewalker in history

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams set a new record for the longest time spent spacewalking by a woman, reaching 62 hours and 6 minutes during a recent 5-hour 26-minute mission. Williams and colleague Barry Wilmore removed a faulty radio communications unit from the International Space Station, a task that had previously failed. This achievement places Williams fourth on the global list of all spacewalkers. The mission marked the 274th spacewalk in support of the ISS since 1998.
