ISS experiences unplanned Nauka module thruster firing

Yesterday was a big day on it, after years of delay, the new Russian ISS module arrived and anchored with the space station. The module is a multipurpose laboratory module named Nauka. The new ISS module anchored with the station at 9:29 EDT, and shortly after, Russian cosmonauts conducted a leakage between modules and the attached service module.

After the nauka anchored with ISS at 12:45 a.m., the monitoring of the ISS flight control team noticed the driving shooting of the new module that was not planned. Thruster shooting causes the space station to move out of orientation. However, the Iss land control team was able to regain control of attitude and stabilize the spacecraft movement.

NASA said the ISS crew was never in danger of unplanned shots. Mission Control Houston currently monitors the status of the space station, and the team also monitors the potential impact for the launch of the Boeing Starliner scheduled today. Until now, there was no indication of what caused translucent translucence that was not planned.

The nauka replaces the Pirs docking station and the Russian cargo spaceship attached. Earlier this week, the Pirs module was released from the ISS. The cargo ship progress Russia’s old docking port was attached to pushing the two spacecraft into the atmosphere of the earth, where they burned.

Nauka is more than just a science laboratory. It also acts as airlock, port docking and has an extra bed and toilet facilities itself in it. The PIR has been attached to the space station for almost 20 years. Nauka has been postponed for several years, and some have begun to suspect it will never get into orbit.
