Soyuz leak prompts Russia to postpone another spacewalk

[ad_1]

Russia’s space agency has called off another spacewalk at the International Space Station as engineers investigate why a Russian-built Soyuz spacecraft docked there began leaking coolant late Wednesday (Dec. 14). 

Officials with Roscosmos, Russia’s space agency, already postponed one spacewalk on Wednesday, when the Soyuz leak was detected as two cosmonauts were preparing to exit the station for a seven-hour excursion. Now, a second spacewalk planned for Dec. 21 is no longer in the cards.
