Space station's computers up and running


Newly revived computers aboard the international space station could resume providing crucial functions including the outpost's ability to orient itself and produce oxygen on Saturday if they performed well overnight.

"If everything looks well, then I would expect we would slowly begin to activate the systems on board, including the attitude control systems," said Mike Suffredini, space station programme manager.
