247 – While touring the International Space Station, astronauts Yasmin Moghbeli and Loral O’Hara accidentally dropped their instrument box, and the floating collection can be seen from Earth. The astronauts spent six hours and 42 minutes outside the International Space Station performing maintenance work. However, the suitcase-sized bag floated away and is now orbiting Earth, several minutes ahead of the space station. The incident was accidentally captured on the camera of fellow Japanese Satoshi Furukawa while he was photographing Mount Fuji.
NASA stated that no instruments were needed for the rest of the spacewalk. Mission Control analyzed the bag’s path and determined that the risk of reconnecting with the station was low, ensuring the safety of the crew on board and the space station. Classified as space junk, the suitcase is expected to return to Earth’s orbit in the coming months, likely burning up in the process. Pictured: Yasmine Moghbeli and Loral O’Hara during a spacewalk.

Some people may be able to see it floating using just binoculars, EarthSky said. “It is surprisingly bright (for a tool bag), shining just below the limits of visibility with the naked eye,” the website said. Currently, it is estimated that there are about 100,000 pieces of orbital debris orbiting the Earth.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time an astronaut has lost a tool box. In November 2008, Heidi Stefanyshyn-Piper was doing a similar repair when the same thing happened. In 2006, astronaut Pierce Sellers sheepishly announced that he had lost a spoon. In 1965, the first American astronaut, Ed White, lost a spare glove on his first flight.
