NASA monitoring increased air leak on ISS
Posted: Sun, Mar 3, 2024, 7:08 AM ET (1208 GMT) NASA is monitoring an increase in an air leak in the Russian segment of the International Space Station. At a briefing Wednesday, NASA said the leak, in a portion of the Zvezda service module, recently doubled to more than 0.9 kilograms per day. It's not clear what is causing the leak, but that part of the module, which hosts a docking port, is currently sealed off from the rest of the station. NASA added the leak does not pose a safety risk even at its elevated level. That part of Zvezda has suffered small air leaks since 2019.
