The second spacewalk, by Good and Bowen, will be devoted to replacement of three of six batteries on the port truss with new ones brought up by Atlantis The third spacewalk by Reisman and Good will swap out the final three batteries

The Russian station component, the Mini-Research Module-1 (named Rassvet, the Russian word for dawn) is to be installed on the Earth-facing port of the station�s Zarya module by Reisman and Sellers, using the station�s Canadarm2
