Watch Live: International Space Station Astronauts Conduct Spacewalk To Fix Robotic Arm

Early Tuesday morning two NASA astronauts are scheduled to complete a spacewalk for NASA to do maintenance work on the Canadarm2 attached to the International Space Station. The walk was scheduled weeks ago for the astronauts and it will go ahead even with the recent government shutdown. Monday afternoon the Senate passed a resolution that would extend the funding of the government for three weeks, if the House passes it as well then presumably, NASA would broadcast the walk come Tuesday morning. As of Monday at 3 p.m. ET the NASA TV website said, "Due to the government shutdown, NASA Television is unavailable. We regret the inconvenience," on both the Public and the Media channels of the site.
