NASA wings upgrade for Hubble spacewalk on Tuesday
NASA will replace one wing during the Tuesday spacewalk with two astronauts aboard. The new 25 foot by 8 foot rigid wings fold for stability, use gallium arsenide solar cells boosting power by 20 percent, while the old silicon wings return to Earth aboard Columbia for study. Grunsfeld Linnehan will power down Hubble to remove the power-control unit during spacewalk No 3, the most challenging task yet.
