India may send astronaut to train on International Space Station in 2022

But NASA, the U.S. space agency, countered in a statement that ruling out defects "does not necessarily mean the hole was created intentionally or with mal-intent". "It concluded that a manufacturing defect had been ruled out which is important to establish the truth".

Roskosmos Managing Director, Sergey Kraylev, said in turn that it was not possible to exclude the possibility that a space crew member of the Soyuz-MC-09 spacecraft would be caused by a crew member in the International Space Station.

Dmitry Rogozin's remarks, made in an interview broadcast on October 1, deepened the mystery behind the hole that caused a small, brief drop in oxygen levels in the orbiting station in late August.

Russian Federation is looking at building a lunar station jointly with Chinese partners, CEO of Russia's state space corporation Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, said, TASS reports. "Ruling out a manufacturing defect indicates that this is an isolated issue which does not categorically affect future production", it said. Then, once it became apparent that the hole was drilled - and created while the spacecraft was still on Earth - it was hoped that it was merely accidental damage that was poorly repaired.

Last month the Russian daily Kommersant reported that an investigation had probed the possibility that USA astronauts deliberately drilled the hole in order to get a sick colleague sent back home - something Russian officials later denied. As per the information the current crews are three USA, two Russian and one German astronaut.

Powers said in a statement that, "No one is saying, and certainly NASA is not saying, that it was deliberate".

She also said the space agency was confident that the origin of the hole would ultimately be explained.

The International Space Station (ISS) is a space station, or a habitable artificial satellite, in low Earth orbit. Down the astronauts will be on a cargo Soyuz MS-08.
