“Maybe just someone’s bad and tired, that they drilled this hole and wanted to go home early,” said Suraev and urged to await the findings of the Commission.
The former cosmonaut did not rule out that this incident can be the conflict that arose between people in orbit or mental problems on one of them.

There is a sliding drill on the surface,” — said Rogozin.
