The International Space Station (ISS) was briefly moved out of position after the Nauka space module s thrusters unexpectedly fired up.
According to a tweet posted on the official Twitter account of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Nauka s thrusters unexpectedly began to fire at 12:45 p.m. ET, tilting the space station by 45 degrees from its usual position.
The problem has since been fixed by NASA s Mission Control teams. No one from the ISS crew was ever in danger due to the tilt.
