Spacemen on board the beleaguered Russian space station Mir could have to wait another 10 days before their electricity supply is working properly, it was announced on Friday (27/6).
A cargo ship collided with the sprawling, 11-year-old station during a practice redocking on Wednesday (25/6), punching a small hole through the hull of the Mir, forcing the crew to shut off part of the vessel.
