  1. After 53 years in orbit, the Soviet-era Kosmos 482 spacecraft made an uncontrolled reentry into Earth’s atmosphere on May 10, 2025, over the Indian Ocean. Originally intended for a Venus mission in 1972, the craft became long-term space debris due to a launch failure.

  2. Soviet-era spacecraft plunges to Earth after 53 years stuck in orbit.

    @AssociatedPress reports: "The Russians indicated it came down over the Indian Ocean, but some experts were not so sure of the precise location."

  3. The demise of #Kosmos482 got me talking space debris with Kaye Adams again 🤓 A lottery win is more likely than space junk through your roof, but what does all the vaporised metal do to our atmosphere? Thanks to POTUS we're not going to know any time soon. 🧪🔭🛰️ ℹ️: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

  4. Hier die Grafik von ESA SST von oben aus dem Blog ergänzt um ein paar Timestamps.

    Die letzte Runde von #Kosmos482 in MESZ:

    08:04 letzte Beobachtung vom Radar der ESA in Deutschland

    08:18 letztes Perigäum (geschätzt)

    08:24 Aufschlag im Indischen Ozean westlich von Jakarta, Indonesien (RosKosmos)

  5. after a almost 55 year long probe mission to #venus,
    roscosmos convinced: "conditions on venus extremely similar to those on earth"

    finally! after the long waiting #kosmos482 has entered atmosphere, but it was definitely worth the wait; probe data shows a breathable atmosphere quite identical with earths, and a proof of liquid water on venus, as the probe plunged into a vast ocean!

    -a very exciting day for #roscosmos indeed

  6. Irgendwo hier ging es gestern mit #Kosmos482 zuende: bsky.app/profile/planet4589.bs. Genauer weiß man es leider - überraschenderweise - nicht: bsky.app/profile/planet4589.bs. Eine vermeintlich genaue Absturzzeit aus Russland ist wohl auch nur geraten: bsky.app/profile/marcolangbroe. Am wahrscheinlichsten war der Eintritt zwischen 8:20 und 8:40 MESZ: groups.io/g/mpml/message/40596. Alles nochmal in einem langen Artikel: leonarddavid.com/roscosmos-rep. Und noch mehr Links: skyweek.wordpress.com/2025/05/ (unter der zweiten Grafik).

  7. I'm really objecting to seeing the phrase "Kosmos 482 re-enters the atmosphere more than a half century since launch" in a news article because it was launched the year I was born and I don't need to be reminded that I can be conveniently expressed as a fractional century.

  8. Soviet #Kosmos482 spacecraft crashes into an unknown site on Earth

    "The craft was last detected over #Germany and is believed to have completed an uncontrolled re-entry after a botched mission to Venus left it orbiting Earth for more than 50 years."

  9. The reentry of #Kosmos482 has happened at 6:30 UTC ± 10 minutes, over the Indian Ocean: groups.io/g/mpml/message/40596. A Russian report citing 6:24 UTC - x.com/katlinegrey/status/19211 - is most likely only another extrapolation, not direct observation by some sensor. And in any case a big space radar in Germany saw the Venus probe still in orbit at 6:04 UTC but not again at 7:32 UTC: blogs.esa.int/rocketscience/20

  10. Die 1972 gestartete sowjetische Sonde #Kosmos482, einst für die Venus gedacht, kreiste über 50 Jahre unkontrolliert um die Erde 🌍. Nun stürzte sie ins Meer – ein mahnendes Beispiel für Weltraummüll 🚀💥. Wie lange noch ignorieren wir die Risiken im Orbit? #SpaceDebris #Nachhaltigkeit #Weltraum #newz

  11. "Failed Soviet Venus lander Kosmos 482 crashes to Earth after 53 years in orbit" by @Spacecom - Re-entry location still unknown, leading to educated guesses that it fell in the water. In between its last radar contact over Europe and missing the next one, it went over Asia, Indian Ocean, Western Australia, Pacific Ocean, Central America and the Atlantic Ocean.

  12. 🛰️🔥 La capsule soviétique #Kosmos482 est bien rentrée sur Terre mais il est difficile actuellement de savoir précisément quand et où.

  13. ...although this is just another prediction from modelling, so it could have actually come down anywhere between Germany and Western Australia or beyond

  14. What if I told you an interplanetary probe we sent out last century just returned to Earth

    It's been silent and forgotten for over 5 decades

    Roaming the skies, a neat little capsule of defunct technology, from a dead country

    With who knows what secrets, and now it is back

    Ok the last sentence I'm writing SciFi

    But the rest is truth (it was intended for #Venus, but failed to leave Earth orbit 53 years ago)

  15. Soviet Kosmos 482 spacecraft crashes into an unknown site on Earth

    The craft was last detected over Germany and is believed to have completed an uncontrolled re-entry after a botched mission to Venus left it orbiting Earth for more than fifty years.
