LIVE: US EVA 41 - March 30, 2017

Expedition 50 astronauts will conduct a spacewalk outside the International Space Station (ISS) in early April to prepare for the future arrival of U.S. commercial crew spacecraft and upgrade station hardware.
https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2017/03/eva-astronauts-prepare-iss-crew-vehicles/
The spacewalk is currently scheduled for April 2. NASA TV will provide complete coverage beginning at 6:30 a.m., with the six-and-a-half hour spacewalks scheduled to begin about 7 a.m.
The second spacewalk will feature Kimbrough and Flight Engineer Peggy Whitson of NASA reconnecting cables and electrical connections on PMA-3 at its new home on top Harmony. They also will install the second of the two upgraded computer relay boxes on the station’s truss and install shields and covers on PMA-3 and the now-vacant common berthing mechanism port on Tranquility.
This will be the 199th spacewalk in support of space station assembly and maintenance. Kimbrough’s two spacewalks will be the fifth and sixth of his career. Whitson will be making the eighth and ninth spacewalks of her career – more than any other female astronaut.

Update:
A second spacewalk has been rescheduled to Thursday, March 30
