Russian Soyuz spacecraft initiates mission for crew stranded on ISS important key points.
Both NASA and Roscosmos concur that the leak on the MS-22 spacecraft last year was brought on by a micrometeoroid, a tiny piece of space rock, striking the spacecraft violently. A separate leak this month on the cooling system of the Progress MS-21 cargo ship, which was removed from orbit last week, is also thought to have been caused by a similar accident this month.
Tass reported that 430 kilograms (approximately 950 pounds) of cargo, including medical supplies, scientific equipment, water, food, and cleaning materials, were sent aboard the replacement vessel. According to a Russian space official quoted by Tass, the amount of food delivered was three times what is typically sent on such trips.
The revelations have forced NASA and Roscosmos to change their plans and cancel scheduled space walks.
