A group of mysterious Russian satellites have begun to break up in low-Earth orbit, leaving fields of debris in their wakes.
A group of mysterious Russian satellites has begun to break up in low-Earth orbit, reports indicate. The satellites are part of three groups launched in 2013, 2014, and 2015.
In 2014 another satellite launched three more satellites, as well as a mysterious satellite that would go on to be designated Cosmos 2499. Then, in April 2015, a third mysterious Russian satellite, designated Cosmos 2504, launched into orbit. What exactly caused these satellites to break up is unclear. However, experts in space debris say that the demise of the mysterious Russian satellites does not appear to be caused by collisions in orbit.
