COSMONAUT FINISHES RECORD 9TH SPACEWALK

Cosmonaut Alexander Serebrov broke the world record for spacewalks Friday, becoming the first man ever to venture outside an orbiting spacecraft nine times.

Soviet cosmonauts Leonid Kizim and Vladimir Solovyov set the previous record of eight spacewalks in 1986.
