Lost Tool Bag Becomes Orbiting Satellite After Astronauts' Spacewalk Mishap

A tool bag that accidentally floated away from two NASA astronauts during a spacewalk outside the International Space Station on November 1 is now orbiting Earth just ahead of the ISS. While not visible to the naked eye, the tool bag is "surprisingly bright" and can be spotted with binoculars. Stargazers can use the Spot the Station app to track the ISS's location and scan the sky ahead of its trajectory to spot the moving light of the tool bag. It is expected to remain in orbit for several months before disintegrating in Earth's atmosphere.
