STORYLINE:
Russian astronaut Oleg Artemyev and Italy's Samantha Cristoforetti conducted a joint spacewalk to activate a robotic arm in the International Space Station on Thursday.
They installed an adapter for the European Robotic Arm on the Poisk module, Roscosmos said on Telegram.
Roscosmos said an ERA adapter will later be installed on the Rassvet module in order to install it on the Nauka module. The spacewalkers earlier launched 10 nanosatellites.
The 11-meter (37-foot) mechanical limb was sent into orbit by the European Space Agency last July.
