Statement on International Space Station leak investigation

Below is NASA’s statement about the International Space Station Leak
Investigation:

On Aug. 29, 2018 a small hole was discovered on the International Space
Station. This resulted in a pressure leak. The hole has been identified and
fixed by space station crew.

Russian media recently reported that General Director Rogozin said the hole
was not a manufacturing defect. Ruling out a manufacturing defect indicates
that this is an isolated issue which does not categorically affect future
production.

This conclusion does not necessarily mean the hole was created
intentionally or with mal-intent. NASA and Roscosmos are both investigating
the incident to determine the cause. The International Space Station
Program is tentatively planning a spacewalk in November to gather more
information.

On October 11, American Astronaut Nick Hague, KG5TMV and Russian Cosmonaut
Alexey Ovchinin will launch to the International Space Station on a Russian
Soyuz MS-10 spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
Administrator Bridenstine is scheduled to attend the launch and plans to
meet with Mr. Rogozin. This will be their first in-person meeting. They had
a telephone call on September 12 during which they discussed the
International Space Station leak.
