19 Aug 2026, 10:07 PMThe Register1.5 ISS spacewalkers discover there's no such thing as a quick antenna job

NASA astronaut Anil Menon and ESA astronaut Sophie Adenot attempted to replace a failed space-to-ground antenna on the ISS on August 18, 2026, but stubborn electrical connections and bolts consumed too much time. They removed the faulty antenna and secured it temporarily, but managers called off the installation of the replacement. A follow-up spacewalk is scheduled for August 25, though NASA hasn't confirmed whether the antenna work will be included.

Why: This is a space operations story with no practical takeaway for builders, developers, or founders. The ISS retains one operational antenna, so communications redundancy is reduced but not lost. There is nothing here that changes what the audience should build, decide, or deploy.
