What is the plan for the P6 array after STS-116? Will the furled section be
unfurled again or repositioned? Thanks,


STS-120, scheduled for next August, will relocate the array to the end
of the port truss and unfurl it.

"Furl" is a weird verb

You get used to it if you handle sails. Maybe "flag tenders" get used
to it, too.

To add to Dale was saying, the other P6 array will retreacted in March
during STS-117. Then it will be moved to the end of P5, which was installed
last week on FD 4.
