ISS has leaked ammonia into space - BBC

at the International Space Station (ISS) has leaked into the open space of ammonia from the thermal control system, according to «Interfax» with reference to NASA.

The American space agency say that “the station continues to operate normally, the crew is not in danger,” but if the leak rate will remain the same after two days of the cooling circuit of one of the ISS solar panels can not be used.

In November last year, the astronauts have had to go into space to stop the leak of ammonia, reminiscent of “Interfax».
