The joint crew of space shuttle Endeavour and the International Space Station awakened at 7:03 a.m. EDT to the strains of “Home,” by Marc Broussard for lead spacewalker Dave Wolf, who heard the call while camped out in the Quest airlock with Tim Kopra, the newest addition to the Expedition 20 crew. The first spacewalk of the mission begins at 11:58 a.m. Wolf and Tim Kopra will perform a number of tasks, including preparing the Kibo Japanese Experiment Facility (JEF).    (source: nasa.gov)
