With deorbit of the station on the horizon, a new article should be created about the deorbit vehicle NASA plans to develop, its still in the funding phase but enough information does exist currently 73.210.30.217 (talk) 03:53, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This unsourced subsection only talks about two concept ideas, one (Nautilus-X) seems to have been cancelled back in 2011, and the other (Nanoracks "Independence-1") doesn't have a clear connection to the ISS as a future module, and from a quick Google search ("Independence-1 nanoracks"), hasn't had any news since 2018. Do these concepts and their subsection still have a place in this already bloated article then? SpacePod9 (talk) 05:41, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
According to ArsTechnica, there's a been a continuing air leak "NASA and the Russian space agency, Roscosmos, still have not solved a long-running and worsening problem with leaks on the International Space Station.
The microscopic structural cracks are located inside the small PrK module on the Russian segment of the space station, which lies between a Progress spacecraft airlock and the Zvezda module. After the leak rate doubled early this year during a two-week period, the Russians experimented with keeping the hatch leading to the PrK module closed intermittently and performed other investigations. But none of these measures taken during the spring worked. ... However, there appears to be rising concern in the ISS program at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. The space agency often uses a 5x5 "risk matrix" to classify the likelihood and consequence of risks to spaceflight activities, and the Russian leaks are now classified as a "5" both in terms of high likelihood and high consequence." Published Jun 7, 2024. Apparently the definition of 5 in terms of probability is 1 in 10 chance. This may be nothing, but given the cause is unknown AND the leak suddenly doubled this year, it should be mentioned. I couldn't find the PrK module on the exploded 2022 diagram, nor the "Progress spacecraft airlock".98.17.181.251 (talk) 00:26, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
