Space vehicles in the Soviet era return to Earth after 53 years stuck in orbit

A spacecraft in the Soviet era This failed to launch Venus more than 50 years ago on the ground on Saturday.

The monitoring and tracking of the European Space Union confirmed that the spacecraft-known as Kosmos 482–had an income that is not subject to control based on the analysis and the lack of limits on subsequent orbits.

The European Space Agency space office also indicated that Kosmos 482 had re -inserted it after failing to appear on a German radar station.

It was not immediately known to where the spacecraft came or a km, if any, from the spacecraft half a ton had survived the fiery descent from the orbit. Experts said early that some, if not all of this, may collapse, given that it was built to bear the landing on Venus, the most heated solar system.

Scientists said that any person was taking from the wreckage of the spacecraft was very low.

Kosmos 482 was launched by the Soviet Union in 1972 as part of a series of missions to Venus. But this did not come out of the orbit around the Earth, the ways were cut there due to a missile defect.

Many spacecraft returned to Earth during a decade of failed launch. It is no longer able to resist the tension of gravity when its orbit diminished, the footballing – which estimated 3 feet (1 meters) – was the last part of the spacecraft. Lander is packaged in titanium, according to experts, and weighs more than 1000 pounds (495 kg).

After following the cluster of the descending spacecraft, scientists, military experts and others were unable to set an appointment or where the spacecraft might decrease. Solar activity is added to the state of uncertainty, as well as the state of deterioration in the spacecraft after a long time in space.

As of Saturday morning, the American space driving did not confirm after the spacecraft disappeared while collecting and analyzing data from orbit.

The American space command routinely monitors dozens of re -enter every month. What distinguishes Kosmos 482 – and attracts additional attention from government and private followers – was likely to survive, according to officials.
