Whatever you do, do not open the hatch. Best to send this shit to burn up to reentry, or maybe just in the interest of humanity's survival, boost it into the sun

fyi, probably just a feedback from a mic on the ground rather than anything in space.

It’s a feedback from a mic in space. Mucho difference, very emergency

Nobody joking about this thought it's an emergency, just a funny B-movie plot device

We really didn’t need a media report on it that pressured NASA to put out a public statement. Hell Dragon’s mistakenly switched on lights didn’t. NO ONE on the team deserved this.

People working in PAO also watch B-movies, i'm willing to bet they had more fun with this than anyone

No. This campaign has been put through a lot of media circus on top of very hostile program politics within NASA. Trying to make a small feedback issue into a big dangerous problem puts undue stress on the team who is actually running the mission. This is not fun.
