The crew of space shuttle Endeavour spent Tuesday getting ready for its journey home and the end of the STS-123 mission. Early in their day, the crew members performed a test of the thrusters that will be used to position the orbiter for re-entry and the control surfaces for its flight through the atmosphere. The STS-123 astronauts also set up the recumbent seat for Mission Specialist Leopold Eyharts, who joined the crew of Endeavour on the International Space Station. (source: nasa.gov)
