yeah, why can't they just make astronauts wear goggles, then stop the fans, and tell them to squirt some superglue in the air to let it clog the hole?

  Oh come on you can't be serious. Clearly this needs some JB-Weld :P

    Flex Seal would be my suggestion. It works as seen on TV

      "To show the powerful adhesion of flex-seal, I sawed this space station in half!"

  Put a bit of spare sheet metal over the hole and let the pressure differential hold it down. For added safety affix a post-it not with DO NOT REMOVE written on it in all capital letters and underlined. They can even use those special zero-g ballpoint pens they spent eleventy-billion dollars inventing back during the johnson administration.

    But they still haven't located the leak. My blob of glue idea solves that by automatically permeating into the cracks. wait, do they have to have matched CTE and k to the existing material... hmm

      Do you know what causes superglue to harden? Do you think that will be found in a vacuum?

        ok, droplets of UV-curing resin first, then CA glue, then water.
