10. If we have a problem in space and it is something new that we have not yet experienced, would we have to figure out how to fix it by ourselves? (A K2S Question)

From The Space Library

Each crew is in constant contact and is monitored by Mission Control Center (MCC). Should a problem arise that was unforeseeable and unanticipated, MCC and a team of experts in various fields work with the crew to develop a plan to fix the problem. The plans and procedures are tested on the ground in an analogous situation before being relayed to the crew to use. You wouldn't have to figure it out by yourself.
