The error bars are getting smaller on the Venus probe reentry! Now at 6:30 UTC on 10 May, +/- 4.1 hr https://sattrackcam.blogspot.com/2025/04/kosmos-842-descent-craft-reentry.html
Not gonna fall on Saskatchewan!! ...Lots of other places it could still fall though.
@sundogplanets what are the red dots?
@KeksKopf @sundogplanets someone above replied they are large cities! The white lines are possible impact locations.
@KeksKopf They are cities over a million although the astronomers used municipal rather than metropolitan populations so lots of dense areas aren't marked.
@sundogplanets
@KeksKopf @sundogplanets fta: (red dots are cities with over 1 million inhabitants, between latitude 52 N and 52 S). The spacecraft can reenter _anywhere_ along the blue line.
