http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_spacewalks_since_2000

For spacewalks that took place in 1999 or earlier, see List of spacewalks and moonwalks 1965-1999.


Bruce McCandless conducts the first untethered spacewalk during STS-41-B.
Bruce McCandless conducts the first untethered spacewalk during STS-41-B.

This list contains all spacewalks performed since the beginning of 2000 where an astronaut has fully, or partially left the spacecraft. All spacewalks have had the astronauts tethered to their spacecraft except for seven spacewalks by the United States, (six in 1984 using the Manned Maneuvering Unit, and one in 1994 testing the SAFER rescue device). As of May 17, 2009, 183 astronauts have made spacewalks (out of 494 people who have gone into orbit). Only 9 women have been on spacewalks, in part because the EVA suits are too large for some women.


2000-2004 Spacewalks

Spacewalk beginning and ending times are given in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
