I’m suprised this hasn’t happened more frequently.
If I were on the space station the thought of micro meteors hitting would keep me up at the designated sleep period.

I did not know that there was such a thing as ISS-deniers.

Outside Fort Worth, Texas there was a funky museum where this old guy put together an array of Soviet cosmonaut accouterments used in space. They put all their food in tubes like toothpaste. He had one that was filled with potatoes, probably 40 years old by now. That would make an excellent glue.
Lemme check and see if he has any left.

One winter, when the boiler at the church had a crack in it, a bunch of the men got together and pealed potatoes and put the skin in the boiler. It worked quite well until we could get it repaired.
I am just disappointed no one put up a picture of Wolowitz and comments about letting him repair it.

There is no ISS. Because the earth is flat, right?

A patch kit sounds fine to plug a leak in space. But I’d be more concerned about the heat and pressure during reentry!

The earth is flat and stationary.
The earth does not move (rotate.)
A gyroscope spun up on the surface of the earth will maintain its position (all angles in relationship to its fixed gimbal mount) indefinitely. If the earth were rotating, the gyroscope would move out of position by about 15 degrees per hour.
You can verify this in any commercial aircraft that has a gyroscope based navigation system. Sit in the cockpit, fire up the gyroscope, and observe it for one hour. Its axis of rotation will not change its angle.
