STS097-377-006 (7 December 2000) --- --- Space walking Endeavour astronauts topped off their scheduled space walk activities with an image of an evergreen tree (left) placed atop the P6 solar array structure, the highest point in their construction project. Astronaut Joseph R. Tanner, mission specialist, then posed for this photo with the "tree" before returning to the shirt-sleeve environment of the Space Shuttle Endeavour. Astronaut Carlos I. Noriega, mission specialist who shared three STS-97 space walks with Tanner, took the photo with a 35mm camera.
