Backdropped by a blue and white Earth, a portion of the port overhead solar array wing on the International Space Station's P6 truss is visible at left in this image photographed by a STS-116 crewmember during the mission's fourth session of extravehicular activity (EVA). The Progress 23 resupply vehicle docked to the Zvezda Service Module's aft port is at center. Astronaut Robert L. Curbeam Jr. (out of frame) and European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Christer Fuglesang (out of frame), both mission specialists, using specially prepared, tape-insulated tools, guided the array wing neatly inside its blanket box during the 6-hour, 38-minute spacewalk.
