    Russia reports 'non-standard' air leak on Space Station 29 September 2020 manned space programmes, in a televised comment. He said the ISS always has slight air loss due to the air purifying system. "These leaks are predictable. What's happening now is more than the standard leakage and naturally if it lasts a long time, it will require supplies of extra air to the station," he said. He said the crew were now resting but hoped to find the precise spot and fix the leak on Wednesday.

    Atlantis Tank Repairs Under Way 12 March 2007 During the 11-day mission, the six-member crew will install a new truss segment, retract a set of solar arrays and unfold a new set on the starboard side of the station. Lessons learned from two previous missions will provide the astronauts with new techniques and tools to perform their duties. Atlantis Commander Rick Sturckow, Pilot Lee Archambault and Mission Specialists Jim Reilly, Patrick Forrester, Steven Swanson and John "Danny" Olivas will continue training at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston as they await a new target launch date.

Photo credit: NASA/Jim Grossman Source: NASA Space Shuttle Atlantis is in the Vehicle Assembly Building for assessment and repairs due to a late February thunderstorm with hail. Workers positioned platforms around the shuttle to allow for inspections and repairs to hail-damaged areas. Some foam sanding has begun in the nose cone area of the tank. Inspections are finished for the solid rocket boosters and nearly complete for the orbiter, with 20 of 28 hail-damaged areas, all on the left side of the vehicle, already repaired. A new target launch date has not been determined, but teams will focus on preparing Atlantis for liftoff in late April. Mission STS-117 to the International Space Station will be scheduled sometime after a Russian Soyuz spacecraft returns from the station.
