Special equipment has been delivered to the International Space Station to investigate a crack in Russia's oldest Zarya module, Roscosmos CEO Dmitry Rogozin said.

“Equipment has been delivered to the ISS, with the help of which our crews will be able to conduct a full-fledged study of the state of the hull of the Russian segment and establish whether what V. A. Solovyov spoke about is“ blind cracks ”or just scratches inflicted over the years of operation”, – wrote the head of the state corporation Twitter.

As a reminder, the day before, during the survey of the ISS Russian segment, the cosmonauts found new blind cracks in the first and oldest module of the station – Zarya

As the website kp.ru wrote, earlier the Russian cosmonaut Vladimir Soloviev announced a high degree of deterioration of the Russian segment of the ISS. According to him, 80% of the systems of the Zvezda module have exceeded the warranty period.
