Roscosmos cosmonaut Pyotr Dubrov, examining the intermediate chamber of the Zvezda module in the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS), discovered a possible place of air leakage. This is on Monday, November 15, follows from his talks with the Mission Control Center, broadcast by NASA.

"I started preparing the perimeter for laying the cord today. A suspicious place was found. I was photographing him under a microscope with magnifying glasses," Dubrov said.

In August, Vladimir Solovyov, general designer of the rocket and Space Corporation Energia, flight director of the Russian segment of the ISS, cosmonaut, twice Hero of the Soviet Union, said that cosmonauts had found new cracks in the first and oldest Zarya module of the International Space Station during a survey of the Russian segment of the station.

On August 30, 2018, an air leak occurred on the ISS. A hole about 3 cm long was found in the manned compartment of the docked Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft. Versions of damage to the ship were considered both on Earth and in space.

On March 25, 2019, the head of the state corporation Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, reported that traces of metal dust from drilling a hole in the Soyuz MS-09 hull were found in the household compartment of the spacecraft. According to him, there is no answer yet to the question why dust was found in certain places of the household compartment.
