One of the data centers NASA uses got damaged by a burst pipe
Experts are still assessing the extent of the damage
Stanford has described the outage as “severe”
A number of NASA’s projects, such as its Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) mission, are facing major disruptions after the data center they rely on recently got damaged by water, leading to a serious outage.
Stanford’s Joint Science Operations Center (JSOC) confirmed that a burst water pipe severely damaged the data center’s servers, and a resolution could be a long way away.
