| [Edit]
This list contains all spacewalks and moonwalks; that is, every occasion where an astronaut has fully or partially left his spacecraft. All spacewalks have had the astronauts tethered to their spacecraft except for seven spacewalks by the U.S. (six in 1984 using the Manned Maneuvering Unit, one in 1994 using the SAFER rescue device). All moonwalks saw astronauts untethered and some had astronauts travelling far enough to lose visual contact with their craft. As of September 13, 2006, 158 astronauts had made spacewalks (out of 448 astronauts ever in space).
