The space shuttle Discovery has arrived at the International Space Station to deliver one last set of solar wings that should boost the orbiting complex to full power. Before arriving, the shuttle commander guided the ship through a 360-degree backflip so the station astronauts could photograph its belly. Experts will examine the images for any signs of damage that might have occurred during the launching. The shuttle will remain at the space station for eight days.
