How did we miss this earlier! The floating tool bag, the set of tools lost by Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper during a spacewalk to repair a part of the international space station last week has been spotted in the night sky over Ontario, Canada.
Kevin Fetter video taped the bag through a high-powered telescope, and naturally the footage has made its way online.
NASA told reporters that they’d like to retrieve the bag, but are mostly concerned at the moment that it might end up slamming into one of the solar panels on the international space station.
Unfortunately there has been no sign of the missing spider yet.
Footage as follows. It’s not terribly exciting, but we are looking at a tool bag in the sky, which is somewhat amazing in itself.

Ebayers are already preparing for the floating tool bag to come down and be auctioned online for 100k. I bet many are looking forward for it to crash on earth.
