A scheduled extravehicular activity (EVA) outside the International Space Station (ISS) was called off at the last minute on Wednesday. NASA officials confirmed that the cancellation was due to a specific "medical concern" regarding one of the crew members.
While the specifics of the medical issue have not been disclosed to the public to protect the astronaut’s privacy, the agency moved quickly to assure the public that the situation is currently under control. In an official statement, NASA emphasized that "the situation is stable," indicating that immediate danger has passed.
The spacewalk was intended to perform critical maintenance and upgrades on the station’s exterior. It remains unclear when the mission will be rescheduled. This event highlights the rigorous safety protocols and constant medical monitoring involved in human spaceflight, where the physical toll of microgravity is always a factor.
