S126-E-013836 (27 Nov. 2008) --- Stationed near the shuttle's galley and stowage lockers, astronauts Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper and Shane Kimbrough, STS-126 mission specialists, assemble the elements of Thanksgiving dinner on the middeck of the Space Shuttle Endeavour, while the orbiter is docked with the International Space Station. A Russian cosmonaut and seven other astronauts are not far away from the scene and all ten shared the meal and observance at a common place and time, on the eve of the scheduled Nov. 28 undocking of the shuttle and station.
