Space is a place that is full of many mysteries. Little is known about it by humans. However, here is the matter of an incident in space which has become a matter of discussion. In fact, a small mirror fell out of the spacesuit of an astronaut who had gone out of work to change the battery from the International Space Station. Now it has been included in the list of space wastes.
According to the information, astronaut and commander Chris Cassidy said that this small mirror floated away at a speed of one foot per second. NASA also said that this mirror was somehow separated from the spacesuit of Cassidy. However, because of this mirror, astronauts are not expected to run into space or pose any threat to the International Space Station.
Explain that while working on each arm of the spacesuit of astronauts walking in space, the mirror is mounted so that it can look better. The weight of this mirror is barely one-tenth of a pound.
How the Mirror Lost in space
Space Astronaut Cassidy and his partner Bob Behnken are working in space to replace some of the last station batteries in the old station. According to NASA, as soon as six new lithium-ion batteries are replaced, this space laboratory will be perfect for the rest of its life-long mission.
Changing the batteries is a huge task because each battery is about one meter long and wide, its weight is 180 kg. In such a situation, it is believed that this spacewalk (walking in space) of astronauts will continue until July. Behnken will then return to Earth in August with the SpaceX Dragon capsule. Behnken and Doug Hurley made history by being part of SpaceX's first space trip in late May.
