 Space shuttle Endeavour and its crew of five returned to Earth in

He and spacewalking partner Carlos Noriega installed the solar wings last week, then went back out to make an unexpected repair on a wing that was too slack. The astronauts also spent one day inside Alpha, helping commander Bill Shepherd and his two Russian crewmates with computer problems and cargo transfers. objective：目标；飞船的工作人员成功的完成了任务：为阿尔法空间站装上240英尺长的太阳翼。
