Audio sent out by NASA about an injured crew member aboard the International Space Station on Wednesday evening was training material, the ISS said.<\/p>\n

The federal space agency was using the audio to simulate a crew member having decompression sickness, but it was mistakenly picked up on NASA\u2019s livestream.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis audio was inadvertently misrouted from an ongoing simulation where crew members and ground teams train for various scenarios in space and is not related to a real emergency,\u201d the ISS said. \u201cThe International Space Station crew members were in their sleep period at the time. All remain healthy and safe, and tomorrow\u2019s spacewalk will start at 8 a.m. EDT as planned.\u201d<\/p>\n
