Cosmonauts cancel spacewalk after leak at Soyuz spacecraft

The spacewalk of 2 cosmonauts aboard the Soyuz MS-22 spacecraft docked to the International Space Station was aborted due to a coolant leak in the spacecraft, the Russian International Space Agency (Roscosmos) reported in a statement. The cosmonauts had planned to transfer some parts from the Mini Research Module 2 (Poisk) to the Nauka multipurpose laboratory module, according to the statement.

NASA, on the other hand, stated that the heat pressure dropped while the Russian spacecraft Soyuz approached the station, forcing Russian cosmonauts to call off the mission.
