Astronaut Fixes Torn Solar Panel

In order to repair a damaged solar panel on the International Space Station, A US astronaut has carried out a dangerous spacewalk. The energy-collecting wing developed a rip when it was being unfurled at the port end of the platform on Tuesday. Scott Parazynski rode on the end of an extension boom to install homemade cuff links to the broken section. The repair work will enable the wing to be fully deployed and properly locked in position.
