Nasa has been forced to take emergency measures after a new module took the International Space Station out of control.

A piece of Russian equipment known as the Multipurpose Laboratory Module (MLM), and named Nauka, arrived at the International Space Station today. The new equipment initially appeared to have arrived successfully, docking after eight days spent in space.

But soon after, flight controllers noticed that Nauka’s thrusters continued to be firing, despite the fact it had completed its flight and safely joined the space station.
