CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida - A pair of astronauts are spacewalking again outside the International Space Station.
Spacewalkers Andrew Feustel and Mike Fincke floated out Wednesday morning. It is the third spacewalk of shuttle Endeavour's final voyage.

The two tried a new spacewalk preparation method of light exercise, before stepping out.
This is NASA's next-to-last space shuttle flight. One more spacewalk is planned, then Endeavour will undock from the space station and head home. Landing is set for June 1.
