Space Junk Crash: Soviet Probe Falls After 53 Years

Guess what just crash-landed after 53 years in space? A Soviet spacecraft, Kosmos 482, finally gave in to gravity and tumbled back to Earth—nobody knows exactly where, but likely the Indian Ocean. The wild part? This thing was built to survive Venus, so some of it might have made it through the fiery re-entry! For us earthlings, it’s a reminder that old space junk can come back down, but the odds of getting hit are basically zero. Still, it’s a good reason to keep an eye on the sky! #SpaceJunk #Kosmos482 #SpaceNews #FunFact #MoneyLifehacks #Business
