Crane operators Stephanie Wilson and Dan Tani are preparing to mount a 17.5-ton solar power girder to the far left end of the International Space Station's central truss. The 35-foot-long truss now is four feet away from the end of the truss, moving to a point about a foot away. Spacewalkers Scott Parazynski and Douglas Wheelock are providing verbal cues to help guide the girder in.
