Löschen die Venusianer Bielefeld oder Rotterdam aus?

Well, no hard hat necessary in Los Angeles, I guess. Denver, maybe. Also... London seems to be in the crosshairs. #Venera #Kosmos482 #spacejunk

Felix Schöfbänker interprets this imagery from a month ago as showing no sign of a parachute deployed.
I'm more interested in whether the antennae deploy anyway, but I guess there will be no power left by now..

So, on May 10 (at 7:34 UTC +-14h) a half-ton, 53 year old failed Russian Venus mission satellite will fall back onto Earth. Lots of titanium, some will likely crash onto the ground.
Impact could happen between 52°N and 52°S.
On an unrelated note, on May 10, the catholic Conclave would be in their voting round number 10.
Vatical City is at 42°N.
Just saying.

Dr. @Marco_Langbroek is maintaining a site narrowing down predictions for the re-entry of the #KOSMOS482 #Venera probe.
His current prediction is for 10May2025, 8:37 UTC ± 1.0 days.https://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/2025/04/kosmos-842-descent-craft-reentry.html

Now, 53 years later, the Venus lander from the #KOSMOS482 #Venera mission is about to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere and, due to it's rugged and dense construction, is expected to make it largely intact to the surface.
Current orbital predictions make it largely impossible that the probe will land in New Zealand, but there are many other tempting targets between 51 degrees of latitude North and South.

The USSR's #KOSMOS482 #Venera probe was launched on 31Mar1972 at 04:02:33Z.
The spacecraft exploded before it could leave Earth orbit, and in early April a farmer found a titanium alloy ball in his field near Ashburton, New Zealand.
