List of spacewalks since 2025

For spacewalks that took place in 1999 or earlier, see List of spacewalks and moonwalks 1965–1999. For spacewalks that took place from 2000 through 2014, see List of spacewalks 2000—2014. For spacewalks that took place from 2015 through 2024, see List of spacewalks 2015—2024.

This list contains all spacewalks performed since the beginning of 2025 where an astronaut has fully, or partially left the spacecraft. ^[1]

Since 1981, NASA has measured spacewalk duration from when the suits went to internal power until the start of airlock re-pressurization. Roscosmos and China have always used the time from hatch opening to hatch closure. ^[1] These charts typically follow the agency's measurements of spacewalk duration, because those figures tend to be the most readily available, as they are most often provided by the agency.

2025–2029 spacewalks

Spacewalk beginning and ending times are given in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

2025 spacewalks

#	Start date/time	Duration	End time	Spacecraft	Crew	Remarks
480	16 January 13:01	6 hours	19:01	Expedition 72 ISS Quest	Nick Hague Sunita Williams	Hague and Williams ventured outside and replaced the Rate Gyro Assembly Gyroscope 2 on the S0 Truss, replaced the retro reflectors on IDA 3, installed shields on NICER to patch holes in the light shades, relocated the C2V2 cables out of the way so the astronauts and Canadarm 2 could access the worksite, tested a tool on the AMS jumpers, and photographed the AMS jumpers so they can be de-mated on a future spacewalk. As part of a get-ahead task, they inspected an ammonia vent line on Unity and inspected a foot restraint located near the Z1 Radio Antenna. This spacewalk was originally supposed to be performed by Andreas Mogensen and Loral O'Hara during Expedition 70, but it was delayed indefinitely due to a radiator leak on Nauka. [2] [3]
481	20 January 08:55	8 hours, 17 minutes	17:12	Shenzhou 19 TSS Wentian	Cai Xuzhe Song Lingdong	Tasks included installation of space debris protection devices and inspections of the exterior of the TSS. [4]
482	30 January 12:43	5 hours, 26 minutes	18:09	Expedition 72 ISS Quest	Sunita Williams Barry Wilmore	Wilmore and Williams successfully removed a faulty radio communications unit, although the time needed for this meant that other tasks that were scheduled for the spacewalk weren't accomplished. Williams broke the record for the woman to have spent the most on EVA, with a total of 62 hours and 6 minutes, and now ranks fourth amongst all spacewalkers. [5]
