[Jessica]

Out of an abundance of caution, five astronauts abroad the International Space Station had to temporarily take shelter in the SpaceX capsule that is docked at the station while cosmonauts worked to fix a new leak in the Russian side of the orbiting space station.

The part of the space station has suffered from cracks and leaks over the years.

NASA says Roscomos decided to do a more extensive repair after fresh problems were found.

The crew was able to return to regular operations after the repair work paused.
