Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Africa Europe Latin America Middle East North America Atlantis astronauts take 2nd spacewalk of mission By MARCIA DUNN,AP Aerospace Writer - Sunday, November 22 Send IM Story Print CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – A spacewalking astronaut put aside the impending birth of his daughter and concentrated instead on his first-ever venture outside the International Space Station on Saturday. Atlantis crewman Randolph Bresnik was mightily impressed as he installed a pair of antennas. "Other than seeing my wife for the first time, I don't think I've ever seen a more beautiful face," Bresnik said, gazing down at Earth 220 miles below. "This is amazing." Bresnik's wife, Rebecca, was back home in Houston, due to give birth to their second child at any moment. They also have a 3-year-old son, adopted from Ukraine. The delivery had been planned for Friday, but the baby had yet to arrive when the second spacewalk of the weeklong mission started Saturday morning. The astronauts agreed with Mission Control to hold off on any news if the birth occurred during the spacewalk. Everyone wanted Bresnik, a 42-year-old Marine, focused on the spacewalk because of the extra risk posed by working outside. Bresnik and his veteran spacewalking partner, Michael Foreman, got off to a late but fast start, bolting down antenna equipment and relocating a monitor for electrical hazards. They were an hour ahead at one point. The spacewalk was delayed more than an hour by false decompression alarms that rang through the orbiting complex late Friday, for the second night in a row. The high-pitched beeps _ emanating from a new Russian research chamber _ triggered a series of smoke alarms. The racket woke up the astronauts and disrupted spacewalk preparations. Right before the spacewalk, the combined crews attached a giant platform full of spare parts to the exterior of the space station, using robot arms. It was the second such shelf to be installed this week. Atlantis hauled up nearly 15 tons of equipment to keep the outpost running long after the shuttles' retirement next year. One more spacewalk is planned on Monday. The shuttle will remain at the station until the day before Thanksgiving. Landing would be the day after. ___ On the Net: NASA: http://www.nasa.gov/mission(underscore)pages/shuttle/main/index.html Recommend Send IM Story Print Related Articles Italian police arrest 2 linked to Mumbai attacks AP - Sunday, November 22 NC man gets life in prison for woman's fatal scare AP - Sunday, November 22 McCain links political correctness to shootings AP - Sunday, November 22 Mental health cases tax police, emergency workers AP - Sunday, November 22 59 and counting: Health care bill nears test vote AP - 1 hour 39 minutes ago News Search Top Stories Obama health drive faces critical vote Putin backs Medvedev's call for Russia modernisation First Air France A380 reaches New York CERN atom-smasher restarts after 14-month hiatus: official Crisis fallout still in 'first half': forum More Top Stories » ADVERTISEMENT Most Popular Most Viewed Most Recommended First Air France A380 reaches New York CERN atom-smasher restarts after 14-month hiatus: official Dubai growing at five percent pace: economy tsar Crisis fallout still in 'first half': forum Giant atom-smasher poised for restart: CERN More Most Viewed » Alcohol helps cut heart disease risk for men: study More Most Recommended » Elsewhere on Yahoo!
