An uncrewed Russian supply ship docked at the International Space Station has lost cabin pressure, the Russian space authority reported on February 11, saying the incident doesn't pose any danger to the station's crew. Roskosmos said the hatch between the station and the Progress MS-21 had been locked so the pressure loss didn't affect the ISS. Roskosmos didn't say what might have caused the pressure loss. The supply craft is due to undock from the station, deorbit, and burn up in the atmosphere on February 18. To read the original story from AP, click here.
