The NASA media release “Space Station Commander Guides New HD Tour Of Complex” states, “With a mass of almost 630,000 pounds, the station has grown to a size larger than an average four-bedroom house on Earth."

It adds, "The next space shuttle mission, designated STS-119, will continue the station's assembly by delivering a fourth and final set of solar arrays. Shuttle Discovery and its seven-member crew are targeted to launch Feb. 12.”
