Glitch shifts position of international space station

GLITCH SHIFTS POSITION OF INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION
A glitch at the International Space Station on Tuesday caused its position in orbit to change, but the crew was not in danger, the Russian space agency said.
Roscosmos said the engines of a Soyuz spacecraft docked at the station unexpectedly started during testing of the radio system that controls the docking procedure.
Steps were taken to stabilize the station and specialists were now working to determine what caused the engines to start, the agency said.
