Both NASA and Russian space agency Roscosmos believe last year's leak on the Soyuz MS-22 spacecraft was caused by a micrometeoroid - a tiny particle of space rock hitting the capsule at high velocity.
Russia said on Tuesday, February 21, that three astronauts left stranded on the International Space Station by a leak on their return capsule last year would land back on Earth in a Soyuz MS-23 replacement capsule in September.
“ is now scheduled to take place on Soyuz MS-23 in September 2023,” Russian space agency Roscosmos said. Both NASA and Roscosmos believe last year’s leak on the MS-22 spacecraft was caused by a micrometeoroid – a tiny particle of space rock hitting the capsule at high velocity. Both leaks have caused headaches for Roscosmos and NASA, which have had to rearrange their schedules and postpone planned space walks as a result.
