Live in orbit: Spacewalker takes on "ugly" snarl














Spacewalker Scott Parazynski is getting ready to take on a nasty tangle of guide wires, hinge pins and grommets in the ripped and rippled section of the International Space Station's damaged solar wing.














"We've got an excellent view of the snarl," shuttle skipper Pam Melroy said. "Oh, that's just ugly."

Melroy guessed that the situation was "causing some shudders on the ground."
