ISS astronauts Luca Parmitano and Chriss Cassidy ran some more diagnostic tests today on the faulty space suit that Luca was wearing during his second Spacewalk. Turns out the suit still leaks as the crew was able to recreate the problem by powering up the suit. The cause of the problem is still under investigation as both engineers on the ground and the astronauts aboard the ISS try to figure out the source of the issue. The ISS crew will disassemble the suit so that key components can be returned to earth for further analysis.
