A family in Naples, Florida, has filed suit against NASA, contending that debris from the International Space Station damaged their home and mental well-being when it crashed through the roof in March.

The claim, filed under provisions of the Federal Tort Claims Act, seeks more than $80,000 for noninsured property losses, business interruption coverage, mental anguish and reimbursement for the cost of assistance, the family’s attorney said in a statement.
