ENDEAVOUR ASTRONAUTS TO FACE REPAIR JOB ON SPACE STATION WING

USA, Nasa came up with a plan for Endeavour's astronauts to tighten a slack solar wing on the international space station. The tricky mission will be undergone by the two astronauts Joe Tanner and Carlos Noriega. They will have to get two loose tension cables back on their pulleys and reels during a spacewalk. The shuttle Endeavour is scheduled to return to Earth on Monday 11.
