2008/12/29_ISS observations Hi all,--Attached is an ISS observation from 2008/12/29. Probably visible is another Starboard Solar Alpha Rotary Joint(SARJ)autotrack test, as the starboard solar panels(on the right)are pointed in the same(solar)direction as the port side panels.(see also the earlier sent Dec 27 image). 10inch newtonian,manually tracked using a 6x30 scope)I have marked especially trusses and panels in this image,as the lighting and observing angle was suited well in this image from 2008/12/29.This with the upcomming STS-119 mission. The new set of solar arrays will be attached at the right Starboard side,making the structure of main solar panels and the truss structure complete.
