NASA Has Lost Communication With the ISS
At 9:45 this morning, during a software update to the International Space Station's flight computers, one system malfunctioned causing a loss in communication between NASA on the ground and NASA in space. According to Expedition 34 commander Kevin Ford, "the station's status was fine and that the crew was doing well," NASA was able to learn as the ISS flew over Russian ground stations a bit before 11 am.
