[...] deux astronautes devraient entreprendre une sortie extravéhiculaire d'une durée de six heures et demie visant à fixer un nouveau port d'amarrage (l'adapteur pressurisé-3) et à préparer l'élément de structure Z1 [pour y installer] les immenses panneaux solaires qui seront livrés à la station à la fin du mois de novembre. La première tâche que devront effectuer Wisoff et Lopez-Alegria sera de dégager les verrous qui maintiennent le PMA-3 en place et fournir à Wakata, aux commandes du bras robotique, des indications visuelles pour qu'il puisse extraire lentement le PMA-3 de sa plate-forme de soutien située dans la soute de Discovery. Au moment où Wakata déplacera le PMA-3 vers son nouvel emplacement sur le module Unity, Wisoff et Lopez-Alegria dégageront les verrous du dispositif de fixation situés sur la partie supérieure de la structure Z1 et prépareront les points d'ancrage pour l'installation des immenses panneaux solaires [...] 3, record 1, French, - adaptateur%20pressuris%C3%A9%203
