Oxygen System Working Again
The crew of the International Space Station successfully repaired the malfunctioning oxygen system over the weekend. The system was malfunctioning over the course of last week, so it was brought offline so the crew could make repairs. Life support equipment was shut down again on Sunday for three hours – NASA engineers believe it was because of bad computer data – but everything was brought online again on Monday. Station residents weren’t in any danger during either problem.
