I read that on November 21 two spacewalking astronauts wired up the International Space Station's newest room and kept the next shuttle visit on track for early December. Commander Peggy Whitson and Daniel Tani spent hours connecting power and heater cables and fluid lines between the station and the Harmony compartment that was delivered by the shuttle in October. NASA cannot launch another shuttle until the bus-size harmony is hooked up. Atlantis is set to lift off Dec. 6 with a European lab that will dock to Harmony.
