The Space Station of the International Space Station (ISS) has not found any new holes caused by an alleged drilling impact on the Soyuz spacecraft docked at the ISS, Sputnik said on Friday a source for the space industry .
"There are no new signs of impact drilling neither on the ISS nor on Soyuz spacecraft," added the source.
In late August, Roscosmos Space Chief Dmitry Rogozin said that an air leak and a pressure drop had occurred at the Soyuz spacecraft moored to the ISS.
The ISS crew has managed to cope with the problem. Later, Rogozin told reporters that the incident was caused by a hole in the skin of the spacecraft, which could have been caused by a deliberate drilling impact. The manufacturer of the spacecraft Energia Rocket and Space Corp. admitted that the hole was deliberately made but failed to name the officials.
A large group of Roskosmos experts have closely examined the Soyuz MS-10 and Progress MS-11 spacecraft at the Baikonur Cosmodrome after the air leak incident, Sputnik source said on Thursday. .
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yury Borisov has criticized earlier reports that a version of US astronauts has been responsible for the emergence of a hole in the fabric of the Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft.
