NASA’s RHESSI (Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager) solar probe has left Earth’s orbit and burned up in the atmosphere.

The American RHESSI spacecraft left Earth’s orbit and burned up in Earth’s atmosphere. This was announced on Thursday, April 20, by the NASA press service.

The North American Aerospace Defense Command catalog lists object 27370 as deorbited.

The satellite was launched on February 5, 2002 to study solar flares and worked until 2018, when communication with it was lost. RHESSI was then decommissioned. The satellite remained in low Earth orbit, gradually falling from it due to atmospheric drag.

Earlier, NASA announced that RHESSI is expected to deorbit on April 19. It is expected that most of the device weighing about 300 kg will burn up in the atmosphere, but some of its fragments will reach the Earth’s surface. The probability of someone getting hurt as a result of the device leaving orbit is estimated by NASA experts as very low.

Recall that on the night of April 19, residents of Kyiv saw a bright flash in the sky. Later, KGVA reported that the flash in the sky over the capital, according to preliminary data, was the result of a NASA space satellite falling to Earth.

NASA has denied this assumption, saying that the space department’s satellites do not enter the earth’s atmosphere. Ukraine’s Space Agency said the outbreak may have been caused by a meteorite.
