Space station leak concerns will delay visit by astronauts from India, Poland and Hungary

Read Time:33 Second


A chartered spaceflight for India, Poland and Hungary’s first astronauts in decades has been delayed indefinitely because of leak concerns at the International Space Station. NASA said Thursday that it wants to monitor the cabin pressure on the Russian side of the orbiting lab, before accepting visitors. SpaceX was supposed to launch four private astronauts this week on a two-week space station mission. Bad weather and SpaceX rocket trouble delayed the flight. Then the space station leak issue cropped up. The Russian Space Agency has long been dealing with a cabin pressure leak at the station. Recent repairs resulted in what NASA calls “a new pressure signature.”
