Mission specialist Bresnik is the second astronaut to change into a father while in space. After the hatch opening, astronaut Nicole Stott's tenure as a station Expedition 21 flight engineer got here to an end as she joined the Atlantis crew. The main focus of different Atlantis crew members was mostly on supporting the spacewalk or associated actions. Because of this, effectively over half the mission's transfer actions had been accomplished. The astronauts worked to maneuver the spacewalking fits carried up on Atlantis over to the Quest airlock to be used within the EVAs. Once more, for the second night in a row, hearth and depressurization alarms tripped inside the European Columbus Module and the Quest airlock woke the Atlantis astronauts. Mission Specialists Michael Foreman and Robert Satcher spent the evening within the Quest airlock as part of the overnight "campout" procedure to assist them get prepared for next day's spacewalk. Also between STS-123 and STS-129, Michael Foreman has completed 5 spacewalks totaling 32 hours, 19 minutes and putting him 28th on the all-time listing. 136th in help of Area Station meeting and maintenance, totaling 849 hours, 18 minutes and the 108th spacewalk out of the space station, totaling 662 hours, three minutes. 134th in help of space station meeting and upkeep, 106th spacewalk out of the area station, the fourth for Foreman and the primary for Satcher.
