Russia could face charges in 2018 ISS Pressure Leak

In 2018, astronauts boarded the International Space Station opened a “hole” 2mm a Soyuz MS-09 car that stopped at the station in June of that year. While the loss did not pose a threat to the occupants, it led to a dramatic change in Russia’s opening of the investigation into whether the incident occurred as a result of the crash.

Pa a RIA Novosti a visual case with Ars Technica, Roscosmos Airlines recently completed an investigation into the incident and sent its findings to Russian authorities, opening the way for further prosecutions. Roscosmos did not say anything about the cause of the crisis, but that did not stop the Russian media from spreading lies.

The RIA Novosti Russian reports that the ball may have been drilled by NASA scientist Serena Auñón-Chancellor, a member of the ISS team at the time. For example, in Russia TASS Price newspaper, country Izvestia The newspaper reported that Aunon-Chancellor may have pierced “a desire to return to Earth because of ice or fighting at the International Space Station.” Citing its source, TASS states that “the hole was drilled lightly by a man who had no knowledge of the design of the ship.”

According to NASA, the possibility that its astronomers were involved in the formation of the universe is non-existent. Monga Ars Technica For the record, NASA knew the whereabouts of all its astronauts before and during the crash. None of the US astronomers who were in the ISS at the time were near the Russian chamber when Soyuz was stopped when it began to emit air. The US shared this with Russia when Roscosmos launched its investigation into 2018.

“The allegations are false and unreliable,” Bill Nelson, an NASA official, told the site. “I fully support Serena and stand behind all our aerospace experts.” Contact NASA for more information.

The controversy comes at a time when NASA’s relationship with Roscosmos has already begun. November 15, Russia conducted an anti-satellite missile test which formed part of the debris that forced the astronauts on the ISS to looking for shelter on their planes. The US has condemned the case, accusing the country of putting everyone on the ISS, including Russian cosmonauts, at risk.
