LONDON: British astronaut Tim Peake helped two fellow crew members to conduct a space walk outside the International Space Station (ISS) on Monday.

Astronauts Tim Kopra and Scott Kelly from the United States space agency National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) went outside the ISS to fix a broken component.

As they suited up and prepared to go out into space, they received assistance from Tim Peake and Sergey Volkov.

He is the first UK astronaut to be selected by the European Space Agency and will spend six months aboard the space station.
