<p><BR/>Replying to:<BR/><DIV CLASS='Discussion_PostQuote'>Thank you erioladastra, It is nice to know that something is being done to fix this. I wonder if the damaged panels are producing power and are still connected to the station’s grid? If not, how halving of the available power affects the station occupancy and experiment capacities? What contingencies are considered in case of failure of the second SARJ? I know that Russian segment is to be equipped with a smaller array – similar to one that produced power to Mir. In case of failure of the second large US array, can the crew seek rescue in Russian segment? Or can this future Russian array provide minimal sustainable power to the entire ISS? <br />Posted by vgorelik</DIV><br /><br />It is still producing power, just not the maximum amount.</p><p>IIRC, the russian array cannot feed power to the whole ISS, only the russiand segment, but I'm not sure.</p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.
