NASA has instructed crew members aboard the International Space Station to return to planned operations after Russia’s space agency Roscosmos paused structural repair efforts inside the Zvezda service module, the space agency’s spokesperson says in a post on X.
“Given this development, NASA has instructed the crew members inside the Dragon spacecraft to end the safe haven procedures and return to planned operations aboard the International Space Station,” NASA spokesperson Bethany Stevens says in a post on X.
NASA looks forward to working with Roscosmos on a collaborative approach to address the leaks, she adds.
