NASA women astronauts lost their bag in space • Russia today Posting in CHAT: Russia Two female NASA astronauts lost their tool bag in outer space while repairing the International Space Station (ISS). This was reported by the British publication The Guardian with reference to the NASA press service. As journalists write, on November 1, astronauts Jasmine Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara were repairing the ISS solar panels when the bag slipped out and flew into outer space. This was noticed on cameras, after which NASA calculated the object’s flight path and decided that the bag did not collide with the ISS, which means the situation remains under control. According to the publication, the lost bag is bright white and can be seen even through binoculars. To do this, you need to find the ISS (the third brightest object) in the night sky and take a closer look at it. The bag is currently orbiting the Earth 2-4 minutes ahead of the station. Before this, the Russian Aerospace Forces reported that they had been tracking another bag lost in space for more than 12 years. An American female astronaut also lost this suitcase.

rewrite this title NASA astronauts suffered an “industrial accident” on the ISS in Russian • Russia today Posting in CHAT: Russia NASA astronauts Jasmine Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara walked into outer space near the ISS space station, Finnish TV channel mtvuutiset reports. Astronauts are professionals of the highest class, but “industrial accidents” also happen to them. The astronauts overlooked something and let go of their bag with tools, which slowly floated in weightlessness. According to space website Space.com, the array of instruments is now orbiting Earth slightly ahead of the ISS. The little tool bag is amazingly bright and can even be seen from Earth through binoculars. European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Megan Christian posted the video below, which shows her kit bag sliding into space. When viewed from Earth, this set of instruments is only slightly dimmer in brightness than the planet Uranus. Therefore, it is dim enough to be observed from Earth with the naked eye. Depending on the power of the device, binoculars or an amateur telescope can help to observe the object. The bag is gradually approaching the Earth and will be destroyed during descent at an altitude of about 110 kilometers from the surface of the planet. Space.com also reports that in order to track the tool bag's movement, you must first figure out where the ISS is going. For example, NASA has an app for monitoring the ISS. A bag of tools floats in space just ahead of the space station. Source link Source link
