This almost certainly just shows its usual orbit. I've had no luck finding a source of real-time info.
The European Space Agency (ESA) publishes occasional updates here: https://blogs.esa.int/rocketscience/2025/05/07/reentry-prediction-soviet-era-venera-venus-lander-cosmos-482-descent-craft/ https://blogs.esa.int/rocketscience/2025/05/07/reentry-predi... . The most recent one is from about 1h20m ago:
"10 May 09:56 CEST. As the descent craft was not spotted by radar over Germany at the expected 07:32 UTC / 09:32 CEST pass, it is most likely that the reentry has already occurred."
This was published about 20 minutes ago, but basically just quotes ESA:
"Kosmos-482: Out-of-control Russian spacecraft probably just fell to Earth, experts say"

- Kaibeezy 1y agoYeah, frustrating. I posted it when I found it because it looked so promising, then was disappointed to find the data was delayed like everyone else’s. So many pretty dots though. I was going to update the post and then the cat yakked, which is similar, not the same, yet far more impactful on my personal space, gnome sane?
