The crews completed the fourth spacewalk of the mission at 1:22 p.m. EDT. The main objective of the spacewalk was the repair of a torn solar array. After successfully repairing the array, the crews fully deployed it.

STS-120’s stay at the station is slated to wrap up when Discovery undocks Nov. 5.
