NASA: Space station power system radiator leaking
juguue User ID: 39608938 India 05/10/2013 08:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	NASA: Space station power system radiator leaking WASHINGTON (AP) -- The International Space Station has a radiator leak in its power system. The outpost's commander calls the situation serious, but not life-threatening. The six-member crew on Thursday noticed white flakes of ammonia leaking out of the station. Ammonia runs through multiple radiator loops to cool the station's power system. NASA said the leak is increasing from one previously leaking loop that can be bypassed if needed. NASA spokesman Bob Jacobs said engineers are working on rerouting electronics just in case the loop shuts down. The Earth-orbiting station has backup systems. Space station Commander Chris Hadfield of Canada tweeted that the problem, while serious, was stabilized. Officials will know more Friday. The space station always has enough emergency escape ships for the crew, but there are no plans to use them. [link to www.wtop.com]

F-BVFA User ID: 22188579 France 05/10/2013 09:09 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	Re: NASA: Space station power system radiator leaking Astronauts Cassidy and Marshburn assigned to this space walk have already conducted two space walks changing batteries on the same section of the ISS where they will be working tomorrow. This was during the STS-127 mission in July 2009. During tomorrows space walk they will assess the damage and if necessary they will change the pump module. After this there will still be space walks required (one or more) to refill the system with ammonia and re-pressurize it with nitrogen. I came. I saw. I Concorde.

Mission managers are discussing the information that was gathered overnight about the leak on the far left-side of the station's truss structure, called the P6 with P standing for port. A final decision on whether to go forward with a spacewalk is not expected until late tonight. The crew is not in danger, and the station continues to operate normally otherwise. Work is underway to reroute power channels to maintain full operation of the systems normally controlled by the solar array that is cooled by the suspect loop. read more: [link to www.nasa.gov] I came.

Quoting: Jack Stowage 17676514 There's no plans for the crew to abandon the ISS. They all take turns staying 5 months by groups of 3 and when a team leaves they get a replacement team a week or two later. They know about coming objects. They can raise or lower their orbit to avoid these objects and then go back to proper orbit and they go on with their work. It takes a Soyuz a mere 3 hours to do the descent from the ISS down to landing in the steppes of Kazakhstan. The Soyuz module descent is brutal to say the least then they deploy the chutes for landing yet still brutal. It took the last Soyuz 6 hours from launch to docking to the ISS - the fastest trip ever.
