"Officials Investigate Recurring Air Leak in Russian Segment of ISS"

Russia's space agency, Roscosmos, has announced a recurring air leak issue in its segment of the International Space Station (ISS), with the latest problem posing no immediate threat to the crew or station. This comes after a previous leak was identified and temporarily patched up in 2020, and another possible leak spot was found in 2021. NASA and Roscosmos are working together to address the issue, which has resurfaced despite previous attempts to fix it. Russia plans to exit the ISS after 2024 and build its own space station, while the US aims to continue operating the aging ISS until 2030.
