Un telescop legendar al NASA de aproape 1.500 kg va cădea pe Pământ în câteva săptămâni, după o misiune de salvare eșuată

NASA's Neil Gehrels Swift telescope, launched 22 years ago, is descending towards Earth after a failed rescue mission. The telescope, weighing about 1,452 kg, will cease operations soon as it drops below 300 km altitude. It is expected to burn up upon re-entry, with minimal risk of causing harm. A planned satellite rescue mission also failed due to technical issues.
