NASA believes that the version according to which the hole in the Soyuz spacecraft docked to the International Space Station (ISS) in 2018 was drilled by an American astronaut is not credible. This statement was made by a NASA spokesman during a briefing on Friday, August 13.
“NASA astronauts carry out missions with professionalism, they are very respected people who make an incredible contribution to the name of the country …. I think, more precisely, we believe that the behavior of astronauts is professional, and we do not find these accusations to be credible,” he said …
We will remind, earlier there was information that the hole in the living compartment of the Soyuz MS-09 spacecraft in 2018 was drilled in zero gravity by a person who was unfamiliar with the structure of this spacecraft. It was also reported that after the discovery of the problem, the Russian cosmonauts passed a polygraph test, but the NASA astronauts refused.
