Re: Station brightness

So far, the station has been nothing more than an average star in terms

flare).

Will the addition of the Kibo pressurised module (the largest
pressurised aluminium can on the station) change the brightness level in
any visible way ?

After that, there remains only the last solar array to be sent up that
could change brightness level in any visible way, correct ?


No, Node3 also has to go up, on 20A. It will be sticking out the port side
of Node1, so it will be parallel to and behind the Kibo.
