Russia Mikhail Korniyenko		 10 August 2015
14:20		 10 August 2015
19:51		 5 hours, 31 minutes
Installed gap spanners on the hull of the station for facilitating movement of crew members on future spacewalks, cleaned windows of the Zvezda Service Module, install fasteners on communications antennas, replaced an aging docking antenna, photographed various locations and hardware on Zvezda and nearby modules, and retrieved a space environment experiment.[10][11]
378. Expedition 45
EVA 1
 United States Scott Kelly
United States Kjell N. Lindgren		 28 October 2015
12:03		 28 October 2015
19:19		 7 hours, 16 minutes
Applied a thermal cover on the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer; lubricating one of the latching ends of the Canadarm2 robotic arm; and began work to connect power and data system cables for the future installation of docking adapters for future US crew vehicles.[12][13]
379. Expedition 45
EVA 2
 United States Kjell N. Lindgren
United States Scott Kelly		 6 November 2015
11:22		 6 November 2015
19:10		 7 hours, 48 minutes
Worked to restore a portion of the ISS's cooling system to its primary configuration, returning ammonia coolant levels to normal in the primary and backup radiator arrays.[14][15]
380. Expedition 46
EVA 1
 United States Scott Kelly
United States Timothy Kopra		 21 December 2015
12:45		 21 December 2015
16:01		 3 hours, 16 minutes
Released brake handles on crew equipment carts on either side of the space station’s mobile transporter rail car so it could be latched in place. After completing their primary objective, Kelly and Kopra tackled several get-ahead tasks. Kelly routed a second pair of cables in preparation for IDA installment work. Kopra routed an Ethernet cable that ultimately will connect to a Russian laboratory module.[16][17][18]

381. Expedition 46
EVA 2
 United States Timothy Kopra
United Kingdom Tim Peake		 15 January 2016
12:48		 15 January 2016
17:31		 4 hours, 43 minutes
Replaced a failed voltage regulator responsible for shutting down one of the station's eight power channels in November 2015, and routed cables in support of the installation of the International Docking Adaptor. EVA terminated two hours early due to water leakage in Kopra's helmet, but the primary task was accomplished.[19][20] (YouTube: video and animation)
382. Expedition 46
EVA 3
 Russia Yuri Malenchenko
Russia Sergey Volkov		 3 February 2016
12:55		 3 February 2016
17:40		 4 hours, 45 minutes
Deployed a commemorative flash drive, took samples of module exteriors, installed handrails for use in future EVAs, retrieved an astrobiology experiment, deployed a materials science experiment, and tested a tool for applying coatings to module exteriors.[21][22][23][24] (YouTube: animation)
383. Expedition 48
