"Priceless Toolkit Drifts Away from ISS, Leaving Astronauts in a Bind"

Amateur astronomers have the opportunity to spot a toolkit dropped from the International Space Station (ISS) during a spacewalk. The crew lock bag, visible with binoculars, is floating just ahead of the ISS in Earth's orbit. The loss of the toolkit could be costly for NASA, as it is estimated to cost around $100,000 to replace. However, advancements in 3D printing on the ISS may reduce the need to send new tools into orbit in the future.
