A pair of female American astronauts conducting a spacewalk on the International Space Station “inadvertently lost” a highly valuable tool bag, causing it to drift into Earth’s orbit.

Footage from last week captured the moment NASA astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O’Hara accidentally let the $100,000 bag fly into outer space.

Fortunately for the two astronauts, “The tools were not needed for the remainder of the spacewalk,” according to NASA.

“Mission Control analyzed the bag’s trajectory and determined that risk of recontacting the station is low and that the onboard crew and space station are safe with no action required,” added NASA.

The bag is apparently now visible to stargazers, as seen in the following video captured in Añasco, Puerto Rico, over the weekend.

Here are the two astronauts.

NASA explained the circumstances that led up to the women losing the bag.

The astronauts had planned to remove and stow a communications electronics box called the Radio Frequency Group, but there was not enough time during the spacewalk to complete the work. The duo lifted some multilayer insulation to make a better assessment of how to approach the job before replacing the insulation and deferring the task to a future spacewalk.

During the activity, one tool bag was inadvertently lost. Flight controllers spotted the tool bag using external station cameras.

EarthSky.org reports the bag will soon be headed down to Earth… in a few months.

The tool bag should remain in orbit around Earth for a few months yet. Unlike the ISS, the tool bag will rapidly descend in orbit until it reaches about 70 miles (113 km). At that point it will disintegrate. New estimates indicate the tool bag should reenter the atmosphere between March and July of 2024.

The incident has many on social media asking: Would the same situation have happened if the astronauts had been men?

The answer is apparently yes, according to Futurism.com:

It’s far from the first time astronauts have lost track of tools in space. Back in 1965, NASA astronaut Ed White infamously lost a spare glove during a spacewalk outside of his Gemini 4 spacecraft. Over the decades, several other astronauts have lost other objects, from spare bolts in 2006 to an entire bag ironically containing a debris shield in 2017.

Still, maybe teaching how to hold on to things in zero gravity should be prioritized over “diversity and inclusion” training.
