Cosmos 482 is the Soviet spacecraft that was launched in 1972 on a mission to explore the planet Venus and went out of control in a low Earth orbit due to a technical malfunction at that time.
It will return and penetrate the Earth's atmosphere tonight 10/5/2025 after 53 years of orbiting in space,
Experts were unable to determine the impact point as they believe it could fall anywhere on Earth except the North and South Poles, but since the Earth is covered by water for about two-thirds of its area, most expectations are that the spacecraft will fall into the water with a small chance of it landing on land.
