Space shuttle Discovery undocked from the International Space Station on Monday morning at 5:32 a.m. EST after completing a mission to install a new station module and repair a damaged solar panel. After undocking, Discovery flew around the station, performing a photographic survey, before departing the station’s vicinity. The shuttle crew also spends time checking the leading edges of the orbiter’s wings for any damage in advance of their reentry and landing, currently scheduled for 1:02 p.m. Wednesday at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
