The US space shuttle Endeavour has docked with the International Space Station (ISS) hundreds of miles above Southeast Asia. The three residents of the ISS greeted the seven astronauts with hugs as they boarded the orbiting space station. During 12 days on the ISS, the crew will unload and fit the first section of a Japanese space laboratory. In the course of five planned spacewalks, they will also install a pair of robotic arms built by Canada.
