The ISS has been leaking for 5 years. NASA and Russia disagree on how to fix it

A space station floats above earth, over an ocean or sea.

NASA and the Russian space agency are not in agreement about the risk an ongoing leak poses to the space station, a U.S. advisory committee said.

NASA and Roscosmos also disagree about the causes and remedies for the leak in the Russian PrK module, International Space Station advisory committee chair Bob Cabana (a former astronaut) said during a brief livestreamed meeting on Wednesday (Nov. 13).
