39a seven hours out. everything else looks great. 6,000 pounds of supplies, hardware and 200-plus science experiments are on board spacexs cargo dragon. a group of mice are on board to see if bone can be grown in space to combat bone loss, a major concern for astronauts and humans on earth older than 50. a potentially groundbreaking new solar array will be tested going up in a coil and unfurls in space like a party favor. that has the potential to increase kilowatt production in space by 30 fold...

These american astronauts spent much of the morning spacewalking and screwing around quite lift rally. they accomplished this critical computer repair job in just about 45 micro gravity minutes. at 10:00 a.m. eastern time rick mass squawk yo and steve swanson came out of the airlock over asia and unscrewed the multiplexer computer or mdm for short. it is critically important because it is only backup to control the solar array joints that provide power to six men living in space. once they hit t...

Fastest ever for the space station crew. so how serious was this problem? managing editor of space.com and joins us to talk more about it. how dangerous was this mission for these astronauts? >> it wasnt dangerous to the crew. it wasnt going to put their lives at risk or anything. but the space station needs power and has a huge solar array and generates heat. it has to stay cool. this problem, basically knocked out one of those power channels. that would have been a problem for the station. nas...

Listen. >> youre probably still seeing the video camera there but, with this ainge bell, with this angle beta, solar array blocking it were only seeing the occasional flake that is going off. looks like it bounced off structure and going in a different direction. we dont nearly had the view we had previously, but no way to say what is going on with the leak. >> reporter: after these conversations and looking at video sent back to earth by the astronauts engineers on the ground determined that th...

But each array has an independent cooling system. so nasa has been working on plans to reroute power from other sources as a backup so that systems normally power by this one solar array can keep operating even if the ammonia loop goes down. nasa says the crew is in no danger. martha? martha: thats good news. jonathan, thank you. bill: keep them safe. martha: yeah. bill: breaking on benghazi now. the many versions of those original administration talking points revised a reported 12 times? a doz...

Green building create an atmosphere of units. they built the facility from the ground up spending $300 million for a project completed in october of 2010. during a visit that year president obama heralded s solyndra as proof that the promise of clean energy isnt just an article of faith. on the roof the distinct solar array is also part of the deal. the listing agent says there has been global interest in the property bynum russ high-tech manufacturers primarily from europe and asia. the asking ...

The total power of demand. the amount of sun height is even more. >> if april is enough to have it on demand, why arent we using it? green energy though clean, renewable, and abundant is often dependent on the weather. electricity is generated when the wind blows and the sunshine. the solar array in the mojave desert captures 13 hours of sun a day. we have an around-the-clock energy addiction. environmental engineer professor mark jacobson believes that combining a variety of clean energy source...
