STS110-E-5513 (13 April 2002) --- Astronaut Lee M.E. Morin works on the International Space Station with his feet secured in a restraint on the end of the station's robotic arm during the second day of STS-110 extravehicular activity. Astronauts Morin and Jerry L. Ross completed the structural attachment of the newest component of the orbital outpost, mating two large tripod legs of a 13 ½-ton truss to the station’s main laboratory during a 7-hour, 30-minute spacewalk. The station will ultimately span some 350 feet from end to end, slightly longer than a football field. The work of the two mission specialists complemented that of the previous day by astronauts Steven L. Smith and Rex J. Walheim.
