Atlantis astronaut Garrett Reisman is heading off to tackle another top-priority job: Stowing a new work platform for the Canadian android Dextre, a two-armed robot that can do work much like spacewalkers outside the International Space Station.The new platform is an advanced version that will allow Dextre to stand on their different sides and it also provides multiple cubbies to stow replacement parts prior to installation.
Bowen still is working on making certain the spare communications antenna the two were working with earlier is properly fastened and hooked up to the Z1 truss of the International Space Station.
