DescriptionISS Solar Array - Bullet Hole.jpg	English: Chris Hadfield: "Bullet hole — a small stone from the universe went through our solar array," Hadfield wrote, suspecting the hole was caused by a tiny space rock called a micrometeoroid. "Glad it missed the hull." William Jeffs, NASA spokesperson: "The 'bullet' that created the hole in the solar array was probably due to a 1 mm to 2 mm diameter MMOD [micrometeoroids and orbital debris] impact, assuming the hole was on the order of 0.25 inches in diameter, a 2 mm size MMOD particle is expected to hit somewhere on [the International Space Station] every 6 months or so."
