US-SPACE-SHUTTLE-JAPAN
This video handout image provided by NASA on July 20, 2009 shows US astronaut Tom Marshburn (lower C)tightening some bolts outside the International Space Station. Astronauts from the US space shuttle Endeavour ventured into open space Monday on the mission's second spacewalk aimed at helping complete the International Space Station. Astronauts Dave Wolf and Tom Marshburn spent part of Sunday preparing special tools, reviewing procedures and beginning their campout in a special decompression chamber in preparation for the walk, which started at 11:28 am (1528 GMT). The entry of Endeavour's crew aboard the ISS brought the number of astronauts inside the orbiting space station to a record 13. The ISS should be completed in 2010, also the target date for the retirement of the US fleet of three space shuttles. AFP PHOTO/NASA VIDEO = RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE =
