Moscow: A twist on the 2018 discovery of a hole in Russia’s Soyuz MS09 spacecraft. The latest revelation comes after an investigation by the Russian space agency Roscosmos. The Russian agency has discovered that the hole in the spacecraft was made by the American astronaut (NASA astronaut) Serena Oun Chancellor. Russia has called for the criminal prosecution of US astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor.
Russia’s space agency says NASA has drilled a hole in its space shuttle to return to Earth as soon as possible to find its lover. The Russian Soyuz spacecraft Soyuz spacecraft discovered the hole in 2018 when it was attached to the International Space Station. The hole was discovered on August 30, 2018, when the spacecraft’s pressure suddenly dropped. Russian astronauts on the space station immediately closed the hole using available glue-like materials.
Although there were no significant casualties, Roscosmos took the incident seriously and later announced an internal investigation. Initial investigations revealed that someone who did not know the exact structure of the Russian spacecraft had attempted to make several holes, but only one of them was completely penetrated, according to the Russian news agency TAS, quoting the space agency.
It was reported in some global media that the spacecraft had a manufacturing defect. This was denied by the Russian space agency Roscosmos and a detailed investigation was launched. According to test reports, Roscosmos explained that none of the post-construction experiments had such a hole. In August 2019, Roscosmos suspected that Serena Onon Chancellor had made a hole in the spacecraft. They were the ones who got into it from outside, not the Russians.
NASA’s Serena Owen Chancellor, Alexander Jest of the European Space Agency, and Sergei Prokopiev of Russia were on board the International Space Station when the hole was discovered. Adding to the mystery is the fact that the CCTV camera at the junction of the Russian and American part of the space station stopped working before the hole was discovered.
Roscosmos explains that the American astronaut is not ready to be subjected to lie detection and that the Russian astronaut is ready for lie detection. The Russian space agency has accused Serena of making the mistake of trying to meet her boyfriend.
