NASA report this week admitted that there are 50 'areas of concern' and four cracks that could lead to an emergency evacuation from the ISS .
NASA warned that the issues stemmed from one leak which reached its fastest growth rate yet in April of this year .
Dozens of other leaks and cracks have since appeared, which have only been fixed using special tape, gauze and sealant.
The exact cause of the growing air leak is unknown, but NASA and Roscosmos are focusing on internal and external welds as possible source.
In 2023 , one of the Nauka Multipurpose Laboratory Module radiators experienced a coolant leak.
The leak forced all spacewalks to be postponed while the backup radiator was isolated and inspected.
Astronauts have been warned to stay in the US section when module is open so they can be close to their spacecraft in case of an emergency evacuation.
