High Definition video at agi.com ……………………. On February 10 at approximately 1656 GMT, the Iridium 33 and Cosmos 2251 communications satellites collided over northern Siberia. The impact between the Iridium Satellite LLC-owned satellite and the 16-year-old satellite launched by the Russian government occurred at a closing speed of well over 15000 mph at approximately 490 miles above the face of the Earth. The low-earth orbit (LEO) location of the collision contains many other …

Look at that lot!
i smell space tetris
but this is a big issue
STK
Actually, it doesn’t – it just keeps going round & round & round & round & round…
That’s the problem – several tonnes of shrapnel flying through orbital space at five miles per second – which, having far less surface area, will now take thousands of years to slow down & fall into the atmosphere due to drag against the last wisps of air up there, rather than the couple of decades the whole satellites would’ve taken.
What’s the name of that computer program?

dam, more debris to the space!!!!
The iridium 33 satellite was more specifically a secret federal reserve banking satellite. This was no accident. It was a message!
Indeed, the odds of two satellites colliding in orbit are _exeedingly_ small. That’s what made this event so surprising.
Are you saying there is no radioactive material in orbit?
Iridium 33 was private, for satelite phone service.
munnezza in the sky
Ah yes, this proves that what goes up.. must come down.//
I got an idea, your dad should have pulled out you tard.
cool vid. kinda reminds me of ChillingChimp
1 less Iridium flare to look for
, i’m surprised much of the things would be left as they’re both moving at over mach 10 i believe
seems prety unlikely 2 small satellites can collide. Ah well, ill believe it.
fail
“I ‘m kinda worried”
It’s not as bad as it seems.
The total number of people who died nuclear accidents since nuclear power was invented is less than a single year’s worth of road traffic deaths. Or deaths from eating too much fat and sugar. Or deaths from fossil fuel power.
Even the worst nuclear accident in history killed less people than the number of kids who starve to death every minute of every day.
So there are worse threats to humanity than radiation leaks.
These governments are really stupid to put nuclear things up there. Someday one will fall and create a radioactive cloud that will kill thousands.
thanks for the info dude.
Damn, I ‘m kinda worried though…

In ’64 a US military satellite burned up on re-entry. This had the old design of RTG which did release it’s plutonium, and caused radioactive contamination of the area.
This happened about five or six times in the early days, and caused a significant amount of contamination, and raised the background radiation level a bit in those areas.
“Sorry for asking,what would actually happens if the Plutonium thingy hits Earth ?
Does it pose a threat to man ? ”
RTGs are designed so that the fuel pellets stay whole during re-entry.
So theoretically it should be fine unless you’re unlucky enough to find one and pick it up.
This has already happened a couple of times.
The Apollo 13 mission which suffered an explosion and had to aborted carried an RTG with about 4kg of plutonium, which re-entered the atmosphere without leakage and…
