Astronauts Take Shelter After An Air Leak Repair Attempt On The Iss

Astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) had to follow emergency steps after an air leak was found. During a repair attempt in a tunnel area, the situation became risky. Because of this, the crew used a “safe-haven” procedure. Five astronauts took shelter while the problem was handled, so they could stay protected if the air system changed again. Once the repair team completed the work and confirmed that conditions were stable, the astronauts left the safe area and returned to their regular routines. The incident highlights how crews prepare for unexpected problems and how quickly they can switch to safety plans in space.
