The loops of the multifunctional laboratory module (MLM) "Nauka", docked to the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS), creak and drown out other sounds, RIA Novosti reports, referring to the NASA-organized broadcast of the crew members ' negotiations with Earth, organized by NASA.

"Could you ask someone who has it to lubricate the hinges in the MLM crew cabin? Because they creak so loudly that they drown out almost all the other noise on the station, " one of the astronauts complained.

In August, cosmonaut Oleg Novitsky noticed that metal structures were sticking out at the entrance to the module's cabin, to which, according to a crew member, something was once attached. Novitsky noticed that these elements, apparently not performing any functions, interfere with movement inside the module.

In the same month, NASA reported that the unplanned activation of the MLM engines after its accession to the Russian segment of the ISS led to a change in the general orientation in space of the latter by 540 degrees (one and a half full turns).

In July, Novitsky said that when opening the hatch of the "Science", a bolt flew out of the latter.

In the same month , RIA Novosti, referring to the cosmonauts ' negotiations with the Mission Control Center (MCC), reported that the engines of the "Science" docked to the ISS had started working unplanned. The reason for this in Roscosmos was called a short-term software failure.

The MLM docked to the ISS on July 29. On it, Nauka took the place of the Pirs module, which was undocked from the Russian segment of the station with the help of the Progress MS-16 cargo ship .
