NASA said there is no emergency on the International Space Station (ISS) after audio from a medical drill, in which the crew appeared to be in distress, was mistakenly broadcast on an official live stream.

During the NASA live stream broadcast on YouTube on June 13, a woman who claimed to be a flight surgeon can be heard advising crew members onboard the ISS to “get the commander back in his suit,” check his pulse, and give him oxygen.
