The crew of the International Space Station entered its Soyuz capsule to prepare for evacuation in case of a collision with a debris cloud.
The ‘debris cloud’ is believed to be an old motor that probably came from the space station, according to a NASA spokesperson.
‘Moving the crew into the Soyuz is a precaution, as the probability of impact is low,’ NASA said.
Russian mission control later said the crew on board the International Space Station returned from the Soyuz module.
