The Expedition 15 crew is back to work after a couple of off-duty days. Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin and flight engineers Oleg Kotov and Clay Anderson have the International Space Station back to themselves with the departure of space shuttle Endeavour and the STS-118 crew. Endeavour delivered the S5 truss structure then undocked from the station on Sunday and landed Tuesday at the Kennedy Space Center.
Expedition 15 is now back to its full schedule of science and maintenance. Also, the station crew is looking ahead to STS-120, the next shuttle mission to visit the orbiting space complex.
