And the retraction has stopped after two more bays were pulled in. The astronauts and ground teams will be analyzing how the array looks before deciding to press on.

Retraction has resumed.

No other issues or concerns were noticed in the wing survey.

Flight controllers have asked the crew to retract two more bays to watch that one fold and see how it behaves.

1835 GMT (1:35 p.m. EST)

The array survey has shown only one fold at the bottom of one blanket that appears to be resting opposite of its crease. But the crew believes it will 'pop' back the right way later in the retraction.

1830 GMT (1:30 p.m. EST)

Mission Control says all of the telemetry was normal during the initial retraction.

1829 GMT (1:29 p.m. EST)

Once the third bay was retracted, the process was stopped as planned. The crew will be examining the wing to ensure it is safe to continue.

1829 GMT (1:29 p.m. EST)

Two bays have been retracted so far.

1828 GMT (1:28 p.m. EST)

The retraction command has been issued. The wing will be rolled up three sections -- or "bays" -- in this initial phase of the retraction. The wing is comprised of 31 bays in total.




This is what is actually happening at the ISS.
