It is no secret to anyone that Argentina is not going through a good economic moment. The inflation figures mark a historic high for the country and the population suffers it in their pockets. Despite this, the residents of the southern territory find victories in other areas such as sporting, religious or what summons us on this occasion, the spatial.
Space? Does Argentina have a space program? Yes, but that is not the case with what is celebrated on social media. An audio posted on Twitter broke the Internet and has Internet users going crazy because of the unusual event.
A radio taxi signal leaked into the communications of NASA’s International Space Station (ISS). According to a review by The chroniclerwhich quotes the journalist Manuel Mazzanti, in an audio from the US space agency the voice of what appears to be a taxi driver from Argentina is heard.
Manuel Mazzanti is an authoritative voice when it comes to NASA issues. This is a journalist and photographer who has been covering the space program for the past 13 years. He is also the only Spanish-language reporter from Cape Canaveral, according to his biography on his Twitter account.
In the audio in question, first of all, the emptiness of the immensity captured from Earth’s orbit is heard. Almost at the end of their publication, a voice with an Argentine accent appears saying “1-5-0 Yrigoyen” and then they return to the transmission in English.
“150 did you say, from Irigoyen?”
Can someone explain this to me?
In the middle of the transmission of the spacewalk, what seems to be a radio taxi in Argentina is heard… or some delivery service? ? pic.twitter.com/3JJq65g3Fb

The Pope, Messi, the World Cup and now the radio taxi in the NASA spacewalk. The Argentines went crazy with the audio and flooded the social networks with memes and reactions to the unusual leak on the International Space Station.
