A Russian spacecraft started leaking uncontrollably on Wednesday night
Quick Glance: The Soyuz spacecraft on the International Space Station has a leak.
  • The explanation is because the Russian Soyuz M-22 spacecraft was damaged.

  • According to Nasa, the leak was found as the two cosmonauts Sergei Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin were preparing for an exterior mission.

  • The question is whether the leak will impair the Soyuz's capacity to operate.

  • In September, the spacecraft transported cosmonauts Prokopyev and Petelin, as well as US astronaut Frank Rubio, to the International Space Station.

  • The core stage rocket ran out of fuel and separated about eight minutes after launch.

  • The team decided to keep the rocket on the launch pad and move the launch date to November 16. Hurricane Nicole delivered high winds, with gusts reaching 74 mph.

  • While there is a chance that more of the caulk-like material will be torn off during launch, Mike Sarafin, the Artemis mission manager, stated during a news briefing on Monday that this is a minor risk.

  • The launch team and meteorologists from the US Space Force certified that the weather was 80 percent good, with no further hurricanes on the way.
