ENDEAVOUR CREW COMPLETES MISSION'S FIFTH AND FINAL SPACEWALK
------------------------------------------------------------
Astronauts Chris Cassidy and Tom Marshburn went outside the International
Space Station for a five-hour spacewalk today to install two Japanese
television cameras on the new Exposed Facility, re-wire the power to two
of the station's stabilizing gyroscopes, fix insulation on a Canadian
robot and accomplish other minor get-ahead tasks. It was the last in a
series of five EVAs for shuttle Endeavour's mission.

STATION'S CARBON DIOXIDE SCRUBBER BACK ON LINE
----------------------------------------------
Worried the shuttle Endeavour might have to undock early because of a
carbon dioxide removal problem aboard the International Space Station,
engineers at the Johnson Space Center in Houston came up with a manual
control work-around that successfully restored the CO2 removal system to
near-normal operation.
