ISS Construction Continues

Work continues in orbit, here is the latest from the Houston Chronicle:

Spacewalking astronauts successfully attached the first major addition to the international space station in nearly four years Tuesday, a 45-foot-long extension of the solar power system. Two more spacewalks were planned this week to finish the task. [...] The new solar current will help to power future research modules contributed by the European and Japanese space agencies as well as the life support equipment needed to increase the number of astronauts housed aboard the station.
