For my Earth & Space science class, I need to build a model of the International Space Station. It is due tomorrow, and I, being the master of all procrastination, did not due it yet. How do I build something with such a werid shape in so little time? I can use mirrors for the solar panels..and cardboard? Any ideas would be greatly appreciatived.

Google up some pics and get some appropriate balsa wood and brass/steel minitubes from a hobby store like Micheals. For solar panels, cut a piece of aluminum foil, color it with a fat blue felt pen, crumple it up and reopen it, and hotglue it to a piece of poster board. Then cut it to the correct size and shape. Clean uncrumpled foil can be used to cover posterbaord pieces for the structure, also you could cover drinking staws with foil via adhesive spray, also available at Micheals. Speed is needed, so load up on hot-glue sticks. Get movin' girl!

Go to nasa.gov They will probably have lots of help on their site.
Sounds like a fun project.
