Last week, when NASA astronauts were conducting repairs on the International Space Station's (ISS) solar panels, they accidentally let a tool bag slip away. The tool bag is now expected to orbit around Earth for few months and can even be spotted using binoculars. Observers who can see the ISS can also spot the bag hovering near the space station.
