Is there a schedule for these EVAS ?

Right here: https://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=32006.msg2330510#msg2330510

Right down the timeline at this time of the EVA. Dubrov climbing onto Nauka, followed by Shkaplerov. Thrusters from the roll control package in Nauka are inhibited, so they're GO to continue translating towards Prichal.

While they go on with these ratchet wrench installations, I thought it might be a good moment to [rant], yet again, about some quirks in NASA's otherwise good commentary:

I wish Navias would stop butchering most of the Russian words he pronounces, and has been pronouncing for more than some in this forum have been alive. Disclaimer: I understand he's an English speaker speaking in English - and as such evidently doesn't need to get the exact phonetics right, just as Russians or anyone else also imprint funny accents on foreign words they transliterate to their language. That means I understand he says "Progress" as in English rather than something closer to the actual Russian pronounciation like "Pragryess". But things like getting the stress right on the word or just not arbitrarily changing sounds that DO exist in English really get me:

- It's Zvezdá, not Zvézda. It's Zaryá, not Zárya. It's Rassvét, not Rássvet. It's Soyúz, not Sóyuz. It's Orlán, not Órlan. It's Dubróv, not Dúbrov.
- It's Na-OO-kah, not Na-YU-kah.
- It's PriCHal, not PriSHal. At least he didn't change the stress there to "Príshal"!

Otherwise IMO they should just switch all the way to English and translate the words all the way: just call it the module Science or Dawn or the Union spacecraft. They don't have much issue with adapting things like Progress numberings.

Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled content. I should apply to myself the Russian proverb they just mentioned during the EVA: "Don't trouble the trouble unless the trouble troubles you". On the other hand, they did comment on it by saying "That doesn't sound like a very sound engineering decision" :)
