3rd spacewalk in 3 weeks at space station

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Spacewalking astronauts have wrapped up their work early outside the International Space Station.

Russians Alexander Samokutyaev (sam-oh-koo-tee-EYE-ev) and Maxim Suraev (sir-EYE-ev) sped through their chores 260 miles up Wednesday. They heaved an old science experiment and two antennas overboard. The items drifted harmlessly away.

Flight controllers expect the objects to remain in orbit several months, possibly a year, before burning up in the atmosphere.

It was the third spacewalk in as many weeks outside the orbiting lab. This time, it was on the Russian side of the house.

The crew gets a break now — the next spacewalk isn't until January.

Wednesday's spacewalk lasted 3 ½ hours instead of the originally allotted six hours.
