High above the Earth on May 27, two Russian cosmonauts ventured into the void to tend to the aging yet enduring International Space Station — a reminder that the maintenance of humanity's most ambitious shared outpost is not a triumph achieved once, but a discipline practiced continuously. Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev, representing Roscosmos aboard Expedition 74, spent five hours installing scientific instruments and retrieving hardware, adding their effort to a lineage of 278 spacewalks stretching back to the station's first inhabited days in the year 2000. In the silence of orbit,
