Good question for which I have no answer.

Bet you could find out if you found out length of it.

Just did a search and wikipedia came up with:

It is 6 miles (10 km) long, 5 miles (8 km) tall, and 4 miles (6 km) wide.

I've seen that chart before, its quite good.

Although someones sat there and done that, and whilst I appreciate it, god its so lame

Now, back to Eve-Online

Ps, watched the shuttle grab the HST with the arm, swing and bring it in, dock it on the shuttle platform.

Looking forward to todays spacewalk.

Same here, if they lose their grip they float away and thats it for them.
Until they tether themselves in, but the tether might break
