Leaky Soyuz spacecraft safely returns to Earth.

TL;DR Summary
Russia's Soyuz MS-22 spacecraft, which was deemed unfit to carry a crew back to Earth after a coolant leak last December, has returned to Earth carrying cargo but no crew. The spacecraft was carrying 481 pounds of cargo, including scientific experiment results and equipment. The cause of the coolant leak remains unknown, but a manufacturing defect is suspected. The MS-22 was replaced by an uncrewed Soyuz MS-23, and three astronauts' mission has been extended until September 2023 due to the leak.
