The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer was photographed during a spacewalk in January 2017. NASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Peggy Whitson successfully installed three new adapter plates and hooked up electrical connections for three of the six new lithium-ion batteries on the International Space Station. They also accomplished several get-ahead tasks, including a photo survey of the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer.
