ISS emergency: Russian cosmonaut told ‘drop everything and go back’ in horrifying warning

The Russian segment of the space station is close to the European arm.

The team’s mission was to install cameras on the European Robotic Arm whilst adjusting the mechanisms.

The International Space Station, in low-Earth orbit, has housed international crews of astronauts for more than 20 years – Russia, the United States, Japan, Canada and the European Space Agency are counted as the laboratory’s primary users.

The labs on the station advance research ranging from botany to physics – it even forwards research on the long term effects of space on the human body.

However, Russia announced last month that it will begin construction of its own space station and pull out of the ISS from 2024.
