	Astronauts fix ripped solar wing - Boston.com
		Parazynski worked on the damage for more than two hours, cutting hinge and guide wires that became snarled and snagged the wing when it was being extended Tuesday.
		Parazynski, 46, an emergency medical doctor before becoming an astronaut, looped five makeshift braces into the wing to reinforce a partially ripped hinge.
		As Parazynski got ready to cut the snarled guide wire for the wing, he mentioned that it was a bit of a reach.

		Spacewalker Scott Parazynski, his feet anchored to the end of a boom on the space station's robot arm, began a slow-motion, 45-minute ride from the lab's main power truss to a damaged solar array on the far left side of the lab complex at 7:27 a.m.
		Parazynski and Wheelock are scheduled to begin the dramatic spacewalk around 6:30 a.m., but they got off to a fast start today and they could begin the excursion up to a half hour early.
		Parazynski and Wheelock originally planned to test a new heat shield repair technique during the mission's fourth spacewalk but that work was deferred to a future mission to clear the way for a more thorough SARJ inspection.

	Newsvine - Astronaut Conducts Risky Spacewalk
		Scott Parazynski planned to try to clear whatever snagged the panels and tore the wing in two places while it was being unfurled Tuesday.
		To reduce the risk of Parazynski being shocked, all of the metal parts on his space suit were covered with insulating tape — triple-taped, in fact — as were all his tools.
		Once Parazynski has cleared the snag — possibly by cutting the guide wire and letting it wind up at the base of the tower — he planned to install several homemade braces so astronauts can deploy the wing to its full 115 feet.

		Spacewalker Scott Parazynski installed five improvised "cufflink" braces on the torn wing and clipped the snarled wires that had ripped it in two places as it was being unfurled Tuesday.
		Parazynski first clipped a hinge wire near the larger tear, using a special tool that looked like a hockey stick to make sure the panel didn't spring back and hit him.
		Parazynski's helmet camera sent close-up pictures of the damage to Mission Control and the space station, allowing the astronauts and experts on the ground to discuss the best way to tackle the damage on the gold-colored wing.

	cbs13.com - Astronauts Find Rip On Solar Panel
		During the spacewalk, the third of their mission, Scott Parazynski and Douglas Wheelock installed a massive beam holding a pair of solar wings, which were folded up like an accordion.
		It took three days to move the beam from one location on the space station to another 145 feet away and was considered one of the hardest construction jobs ever attempted in orbit.
		Parazynski also dealt with the other problem on the space station, inspecting one of two rotary joints that keep the station's solar panels turned toward the sun.
