Russian Cosmonauts Oleg Kotov and Sergey Ryazanskiy conducted a spacewalk outside the International Space Station Nov. 9, installing and replacing experiments and hardware and displaying the Olympic torch that will light the Olympic flame in Sochi, Russia, on Feb. 7, 2014, during the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics. The torch was delivered to the station Nov. 7 by three new residents of the station and will return to Earth Nov. 11 with three departing crew members to resume its role in the Olympic torch relay that began in Olympia, Greece, last month.
