Two leaks detected on International Space Station, Russian space agency says

MOSCOW, June 5 (Reuters) - Russian state space agency Roscosmos said on ‌Friday that its experts had ‌detected two leaks aboard the International Space ​Station (ISS) but that there was no immediate threat to the crew.

"When the transition chamber compartment of the ‌Zvezda module ⁠was pressurised... specialists from the main operational control group for ⁠the Russian segment of the ISS detected a leak from the ​spacecraft," Roscosmos ​said in ​a statement.

The first ‌leak was fixed with a hermetic compound while preparations are underway to seal the second leak which is located on the conical part ‌of the transition ​chamber compartment, Roscosmos said.

"The ​situation ​does not threaten the safety ‌of the crew and ​onboard ​systems - the pressure on board the ISS is stable and maintained ​at the ‌calculated level," Roscosmos said.
