NASA astronauts briefly sheltered in SpaceX Dragon
TechCrunch·
NASA temporarily moved astronauts into a docked SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft due to leaks discovered in the International Space Station's Russian service module. The shelter-in-place order was issued out of an abundance of caution while Russian counterparts conducted repair operations. However, the repair efforts were paused for further assessment, leading NASA to instruct the crew to return to their normal duties aboard the ISS. This incident highlights ongoing concerns with the aging station's modules and the need for continuous monitoring and maintenance.
