Imagine the astronauts and their families, how is it possible for this to happen just a few kilometers from the surface of the Earth? It doesn't leave much confidence in the systems we currently have available. If they can't even rescue these poor souls, let alone talk about expanding into space, occupying the Moon, going to Mars... With this news, when they talk about these topics, only we will want to laugh!
