If they can sleep when they know they’re leaking, they’re a better man than I, gungawhatsis.

So, where’s the duct tape?
Its no secret that duct tape is an important tool to the NASA program. In fact, a roll goes up on every flight that leaves the launchpad. Good thing, too... Duct Tape has actually saved lives and equipment in space.

I’ve got 30 years of experience in the sealant industry.
Depending on the size of the hole, an inside repair would be called for. The pressure will help to push the sealant into the hole and further seal it.
They may end up drilling some small holes to terminate the crack and prevent further spread.
Duct tape may actually be sufficient. I’m certain they have some very high end chemical and physical patching materials onboard. The chemicals will either be two-part chemical cure or cured with ultraviolet light.
traditional sealants require moisture and oxygen to cure.

"...Space Station air leak..."
Well, that certainly puts work problems into perspective.

Gorilla Glue? Yes, but is it “rubberized”? Rubberization puts the Flex into Flex Tape!

Thank you. I feel somewhat better now.

Rubberized? Yea, that sounds like a real technical term.
