The first Expedition 66 spacewalk was completed after 6 hours and 32 minutes by NASA astronauts Thomas Marshburn and Kayla Barron on Internaitonal Space Staiton (ISS). Marshburn and Barron stowed the failed antenna after successfully installing an S-band Antenna Subassembly (SASA) on the Port-1 truss structure, NASA stated. They also completed get-ahead tasks on the Port-4 truss structure, involving resetting the torque on a set of bolts. This was the fifth spacewalk for Marshburn, the first for Barron, and the 13th spacewalk at the ISS of the year.

Microsoft has fired software engineer Joe Lopez after he publicly protested the company’s Azure technology being used by Israel in attacks on Gaza.
Lopez interrupted CEO Satya Nadella’s speech at a company conference in Seattle on May 19, accusing Microsoft of supporting Israeli war crimes. He was later dismissed via email, according to activist group “No Azure for Apartheid.”
The group also claimed Microsoft banned terms like “Palestine”, “Gaza”, and “genocide” from internal emails. Lopez had worked on Azure’s AI services team and previously warned colleagues about the technology’s alleged use in targeting civilians.
Microsoft has not publicly responded to the incident.
