CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — NASA completed its part in the construction of the international space station on Friday, with the final spacewalkers in the 30-year shuttle program attaching an extension boom.
“Twelve years of building and 15 countries and now it’s the Parthenon in the sky and hopefully the doorstep to our future,” spacewalker Gregory Chamitoff before heading back inside. “So congratulations everybody on assembly complete.”
It was the fourth spacewalk in a week for the Endeavour astronauts, who are headed back to Earth in just a few days to end NASA’s next-to-last shuttle flight.
