Both funny and terrifying? An astronaut lost her tool bag in space while carrying out a task on a "space-outing", a space-walk. Check the details
What is more you can now track the tool bag in the sky. To spot it, you have to calculate its trajectory.
'A computer model has been developed for the tool bag. But finding its exact location in the sky depends on your location on Earth.
Equipped with latitude and longitude coordinates, the model will calculate the time to see the tool bag, the altitude it will be at and the magnitude, which specifies its brightness compared with stars.
Usually the bag is below 6th magnitude, which is naked-eye visibility. This means you will need the right equipment to see it - binoculars or a telescope. Even with these it will be difficult to see'
