Kosmos 482: The Soviet Spacecraft About to Crash to Earth After 53 Years

Описание: High above Earth, a forgotten Soviet spacecraft has been silently orbiting our planet for over 50 years. Now, Kosmos 482, a probe originally built to survive a descent into the crushing atmosphere of Venus, is on a collision course with Earth. In this video, we explore the incredible story of Kosmos 482: its origins during the Cold War space race, how it became stranded in orbit, and why it's finally expected to re-enter Earth's atmosphere this week.

What are the chances it survives re-entry? Could it pose a danger? And what does this say about the growing problem of space debris?

📅 Estimated re-entry: May 8–12, 2025
📍 Potential impact zone: Between 52° North and 52° South latitude
