Reminds me of when US shot down USA-193 at 250km
- 908B64B197 5y agoExcept in this case USA-193 was already losing altitude quite fast and was expected to re-enter in the following year no matter what. Now, the satellite Russia shot, Kosmos 1408 [0] had an altitude of 679 km. It will take decades for all the debris to re-enter the atmosphere.
