As if an air leak wasn't enough. Russian media reports that the oxygen production system, Electron-VM, failed in the #Zvezda module. There is no reason to be worry yet, such things happen from time to time, and are usually being successfully fixed. https://t.co/IWhHNpoFPO pic.twitter.com/No7xkHaVPP
