Details:
I made this animation of ISS I imaged on 02-04-21. I wanted to share with you the S1-3 radiator damage I recorded that day. The S1-3 radiator has a damaged cooling panel that you can see in the NASA sample and in my image. I thought I would try to overlay the NASA sample into my image to also show you how the S1-3 radiator can swivel to help keep the ISS cool. The S1-3 radiator may require on-orbit repair or replacement, as the damage may have the potential to create aleakin the External Thermal Control System (ETCS) of the station, possibly leading to unacceptable loss of the ammonia coolant. The seeing and the ISS position in sun light the day made it possible to image it. For that I am very happy.
