Astronauts on the ISS had a problem with air. They tried to fix a leak in a tunnel area. But the repair attempt was not simple. So the crew used a safe place inside the station. Five other astronauts stayed there for safety. After the team finished the work and checked the situation, everyone returned to their normal areas. The ISS crew then continued their daily tasks. This shows how important safety rules are in space.
