NASA is currently wrapping up tests to ensure the success of air leak repairs on the International Space Station (ISS). The upcoming launch of the Axiom-4 private astronaut crew remains on hold, but it could potentially take place on June 19. The agency is keen to finalize the launch date, depending on the outcomes of these crucial tests.
The repairs primarily involve the Russian segment of the ISS, where the leaks were detected. NASA’s thorough testing process aims to confirm that these issues have been resolved, ensuring the safety and functionality of the space station before the Axiom-4 mission. The success of these repairs is vital for the upcoming mission, as any lingering issues could delay the launch further.
