“Following the results of the working meeting of the partner countries' control centers, it was decided to open the hatches on August 25 at 11:00 Moscow time. After that, the crew will continue the regular work program on the ISS, ”the press service of the RIA Novosti corporation reported.
Previously, the isolation was planned to be completed on August 24.
“The meeting participants stated the tightness of all tested modules of the station. After opening the hatches, the crew will continue to monitor the level of pressure and atmosphere at the station, ”added a spokesman.
On August 21, the ISS crew entered the Russian segment and closed the hatches. This happened due to the fact that an air leak was recorded at the station. American astronaut Chris Cassidy is in the Russian Zvezda module.
Crew member Ivan Wagner noted that everyone "feels great."
