 |  International Space Station: Smoke triggers alert on board
 9 September 2021
Alarms were triggered on board the International Space Station after the crew reported
smoke and the smell of burning plastic. The incident centred on the Russian-built Zvezda
module which provides living quarters, Russian media reported. The ageing space station
has suffered a number of failures over the years and a Russian official recently warned of
outdated hardware and failing systems.
