通过飞行工程师谢尔盖·梁赞斯基（Sergey Ryazanskiy）的头盔摄像头，人们可看到飞行工程师奥列格·科多夫（Oleg Kotov）在11月9日进行太空行走时在国际空间站（International Space Station）舱外挥舞奥运火炬（Olympic torch）。
在太空行走时挥舞的火炬将被用来点燃于2014年2月在位于黑海（Black Sea）的俄罗斯度假胜地索契(Sochi)举行的奥林匹克运动会（Olympic Games）圣火。火炬在1996年及2000年被带入太空，但之前尚未被带出空间站舱外。在太空中，火炬处于未点燃状态。
自火炬的征途于10月6日在莫斯科开始以来，在这次史上最长的一次冬季奥运会（Winter Games）前的火炬接力活动中，火炬手曾把奥运会圣火带到了北极（North Pole），并将把它带到欧洲的最高峰厄尔布鲁士山（Mount Elbrus）。
日本宇航员若田光一（Koichi Wakata）、美国宇航员里克·马斯特拉齐(Rick Mastracchio)和俄罗斯宇航员米哈依尔·秋林（Mikhail Tyurin）11月7日把火炬带到了空间站——一个由15个国家支持的项目。
11月11日，一艘俄罗斯飞船在哈萨克斯坦中部着陆，将火炬（以及三名宇航员）带回地球。

Olympic Torch Takes Its First Spacewalk

In a view from Flight Engineer Sergey Ryazanskiy’s helmet camera, flight engineer Oleg Kotov waves the Olympic torch outside the International Space Station during a November 9 spacewalk.
The torch taken on the spacewalk will be used to light the flame at the Olympic Games in February 2014 in Sochi, a Russian resort city on the Black Sea. The torch was taken into space in 1996 and 2000 but had not previously been taken outside the space station. While in space, the torch remained unlit.
Since the beginning of its journey in Moscow on October 6, bearers have carried the Olympic flame to the North Pole and will bring it to Europe’s highest peak, Mount Elbrus, in the longest torch relay before any Winter Games.
The torch was taken November 7 to the space station, a project supported by 15 nations, by Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata, American Rick Mastracchio and Russian Mikhail Tyurin.
On November 11, a Russian spacecraft returned the torch (and three astronauts) to Earth, landing in central Kazakhstan.
