The large solar arrays are currently alighned so that they are edge on to
the velocity vector for minimum drag. They have plenty of power so for now,
they are not keeping them pointed at the sun. A picture of the station is at
<http://spaceflightnow.com/station/stage5a/001221update/full.html>. As I
understand it, the station is moving as the image shows with Unity leading
the way.
