Atlantis Mission: STS-115 Photos

The international space station's new solar wings, which were unfurled for the first time by Space Shuttle Atlantis astronauts, are seen Thursday Sept. 14, 2006. The new arrays span a total of 240 feet and have a width of 38 feet. They are attached to the station's newest component, the P3/P4 integrated truss segment. The deployment of the arrays set the stage for future expansion of the station.
