The SpaceX Dragon capsule can only hold four additional astronauts. Rubio, on the other hand, is going to have to travel on a SpaceX Dragon capsule. Prokopyev and Petelin will return in the MS-22 if an evacuation is required prior to the arrival of MS-23. However, the ISS partners are still trying desperately to find an answer to this issue.Īstronauts cannot be flown back to Earth on the leaking Soyuz MS-22 unless there is an emergency aboard the station. It poses no threat to the station or its crew, according to NASA program officials, despite the leak. The Soyuz MS-22 sent NASA astronaut Frank Rubio and cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitry Petelin to the International Space Station in September.

The leak was discovered two days before the photographs were made public. This delay comes after another coolant leak on the Progress 82 robotic cargo spacecraft. Meanwhile, while the situation was being investigated.

This made the launch of a new Soyuz spacecraft, MS-23, to be delayed until March 2023. A camera on the manipulator in the US section of the ISS was used in taking pictures of the hole in the thermoregulation system of the ship’s radiator. Roscosmos claims that a meteoroid strike was what caused the damage, and the organization is still looking into the matter. The first pictures showing the external damage behind the radiator leak aboard a Soyuz spacecraft docked at the International Space Station were made public by Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, on Monday, February 13. Minco helps companies minimize the risk of product failure by providing highly reliable components and expert design services. The company is unsurpassed in its ability to integrate and assemble flexible Thermofoil Heaters, Flex Circuits, Sensors, and Instruments into a single component for greater efficiency. Minco designs, manufactures and markets critical components for critical applications. This can save a lot of valuable time so our customers can concentrate less on ordering, and more on their work”.įor more information please contact Marty Knutson, Minco Marketing Manager, Temperature Sensors Division, at 76. “Within minutes, a customer can find the sensor and instrument they need, configure it to integrate into their application, and order it. “Minco is striving to give customers a multitude of outlets to purchase our products, and the Internet is the perfect way to streamline the configuration, pricing and ordering process”, said Knutson. Once the configuration is complete, customers can save time by ordering the products online through a secure shopping cart. A customer can also configure temperature transmitters, controllers, and indicators to piece together a complete sensing solution for turn-key operation in their application. “Most of the time, each customer application is a little different, and this tools allow them to save time by configuring exactly what they need online, and order it right away”.Īll of Minco’s temperature sensors - probes, assemblies, HVAC/R sensors, flexible thermal-ribbons and thermal-tabs, miniature embedment sensors, stator winding detectors and sensor elements - are available to configure through this tool. “The Sensor Configurator ensures that the customer has total control over what sensor or instrument is needed”, said Marty Knutson, Minco Marketing Manager. From there, the user is able to specify the exact model needed, and configure it so the sensor will integrate perfectly into their application. The Sensor Configurator, located on the Minco website, enables the user to choose from a variety of different sensor or instrument models, or input a Minco part number, to begin the configuration process. Minco, ( ) a designer and manufacturer of critical components for critical applications, today released the “Sensor Configurator” - a configuration tool that allows customers to specify, price, and order Minco sensors, instruments and assemblies online in one easy process.
