"Lost NASA Tool Bag Floats in Space, Posing Challenges for Astronauts"

TL;DR Summary
During the first all-female spacewalk, NASA astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara inadvertently lost a tool bag while performing maintenance on the International Space Station. The bag, containing undisclosed tools, was spotted by flight controllers using external cameras and poses a low risk of recontacting the station. Experts predict that the bag, now classified as space junk, will harmlessly disintegrate when it reaches an altitude of around 70 miles over Earth in March 2024. This incident is not the first time astronauts have lost items in space.
