ISS Oxygen Generator Fails

Apparently, the backup supply should allow them to make it to 60 days, which is past the next scheduled trip up. Hopefully, previous crews didn't hog all the O2."

    This would not have been so bad if Dmitri didn't start thinking that the ISS was getting stuffy, and he opened both doors in the airlock to get some fresh air in there.
