About 1,400 kilometers from Earth’s orbit, an old Soviet satellite disintegrated. This is likely due to a collision with space debris, according to Space.

According to astrophysicist and space debris expert Jonathan McDowella defunct Soviet satellite launched in 1991, was broken into seven pieces as a result of a collision with space debris.

“Probably, these fragments came from Kosmos-2143 or Kosmos-2145 launched on a rocket,” he said.

Remember that the Russian station Luna-25 crashed on the moon.
