NASA clears International Space Station astronauts to resume normal duties after air leak scare that is linked to a worsening air leak on the station's Russian segment. The precaution was lifted after the crew spent about two hours inside their docked Crew Dragon spacecraft while repair work was paused and the situation was reassessed.
The alert briefly put the station in a heightened state of readiness, with astronauts told to shelter in place and prepare for a possible evacuation. NASA later decided the immediate risk had eased, allowing the crew to leave emergency posture and return to routine operations aboard the orbiting laboratory.
