Satellite expert finds 'lost' ISS debris shield
Dutch satellite expert Marco Langbroek recently photographed International Space Station's 'lost' shield passing in the night sky using a DSLR camera. The shield, meant to protect the $100-billion station from space debris was lost during the recent spacewalk by NASA astronauts. The shield is seen as a faint, thin streak (left), followed a minute later by the Station itself (right).
