 CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) - Spacewalking astronauts stepped outside Monday night and gave the space station's new robot some eyes and a set of tools. It was the third spacewalk of shuttle Endeavour's visit to the station, each one aimed at putting together Dextre, the giant robot.
The last time astronauts floated out, Dextre got arms. This time, the robot got a tool belt and two cameras that will serve as eyes — interestingly, at waist level.
"Happy St. Patrick's Day, guys," astronaut Michael Foreman called out to his spacewalking colleagues.
