A part of the Soviet spacecraft Kosmos 482 is anticipated to crash onto Earth this weekend, with the exact landing location still uncertain. Launched in 1972, the lander probe failed to reach Venus and is expected to withstand re-entry due to its durable design, which was built for extreme conditions. Experts predict it could fall anywhere within a broad latitude range, covering parts of Europe, the Americas, and more. Unlike most satellites that usually disintegrate, Kosmos 482’s lander is likely to survive its descent.
Experts are closely monitoring the expected re-entry of the Kosmos 482 lander probe, which was designed to endure extreme conditions on Venus, making its fate uncertain.
The lander probe could survive re-entry due to its robust design, and experts suggest it might land anywhere between 52 degrees north and south latitudes.
