Ett känt luftläckage i den ryska delen av den internationella rymdstationen ISS föranledde på fredagen en försiktighetsåtgärd där fyra astronauter söktes skydd i en Crew Dragon-kapsel.

Händelsen inträffade på fredagen då nya sprickor upptäckts i transfertunneln på servicemodulen Zvezda. Nasa beordrade besättningsmedlemmarna att ta på sig rymddräkter och bege sig till den dockade farkosten som en förebyggande åtgärd.

Jessica Meir, svensk-amerikansk astronaut ombord sedan februari, beskrev situationen som oväntad. Hon hade planerat ett möte med rymdminister Lotta Edlund men satt istället i kapseln och inväntade eventuell evakuering.

Efter ungefär en timme meddelade Nasa att läget var under kontroll. Talesperson Bethany Stevens uppgav att det inte rörde sig om någon akut nödsituation utan enbart en följd av etablerade procedurer. De ryska kosmonauterna fortsätter reparationsarbetet.

Besättningen består av tre Nasa-astronauter, en fransk ESA-astronaut och tre ryska kosmonauter. Alla återgick till normal verksamhet efter incidenten.

NASA's Artemis II mission, the first crewed flight of the Orion spacecraft around the Moon since 1972, has encountered a helium leak in its service module but officials say it poses no threat to the crew's return. The spacecraft, carrying astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen, launched on April 1 and is set for splashdown in the Pacific Ocean on Friday evening. Ground teams adjusted the flight plan to study the leak while maintaining nominal performance.
