MOSCOW, August 1 (RIA Novosti) - A NASA expert said Discovery astronauts Steve Robinson and Soichi Noguchi would make a third spacewalk Wednesday to replace a faulty video camera, to mount a platform that would be used to store instruments and spare parts, and to accomplish other tasks.

In addition, the astronauts will put up several powerful lamps to illuminate the International Space Station from outside.

The work is expected to start at 12:14 p.m. Moscow time (8.14 a.m. GMT) and last for six hours.
