The spacewalk, the first of three planned EVAs (extravehicular activities) for the STS-124 crew, lasted six hours, forty-eight minutes.
It is the largest component addition made to the International Space Station, with a length of 37 feet (11 meters) and an Earth weight of 32,000 pounds (14,500 kilograms).
The next space shuttle mission will add a robotic arm and an outdoor platform for experiments to Kibo.
The previous space shuttle mission delivered a small storage compartment for Kibo. It will be attached to the PM on a later spacewalk this week.
Further information about Kibo is found at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency’s (JAXA’s) website “Kibo: Japanese Experiment Module.”
Status reports on the STS-124 mission are found at the NASA website “STS-124 Status Reports.”
