Nasa reverses evacuation alert order for astronauts aboard International Space Station
NASA reversed an evacuation order for astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) after a worsening air leak prompted temporary sheltering in SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft. The agency and Russia’s Roscosmos examined the leak rate, with Roscosmos stating no immediate threat to the crew despite ongoing efforts to repair cracks in the Zvezda service module. This marked the first reversal of a safe-haven order in the ISS’s 27-year history.
