NASA briefly sheltered space station astronauts in SpaceX’s Dragon due to leaks

NASA briefly had five astronauts aboard the International Space Station shelter in a docked SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft on Friday, while their Russian counterparts attempted to repair a leaking service module.

NASA spokesperson Bethany Stevens initially wrote in an X post on Friday that Russia’s space agency, Roscosmos, had discovered new leaks in its service module, and decided to perform an “extensive repair operation.”
