ERS-2 was a cutting-edge observation platform when it launched in 1995, forging technologies that are now used routinely to monitor the planet. The chances of the fragments causing damage are slim, and any debris that survives is likely to be lost at sea. None of the re-entering elements are radioactive or toxic.
ERS-2 was a cutting-edge observation platform when it launched in 1995, forging technologies that are now used routinely to monitor the planet. It's possible some more robust parts may withstand the intense heating generated during the high-speed dive, but the chances of these fragments hitting populated areas and causing damage are slim.
They could land almost anywhere in the world but with most of the Earth's surface covered by ocean, whatever debris survives to the surface is most likely to be lost at sea. "And it's worth highlighting that none of the elements that might re-enter the atmosphere (and reach the surface) are radioactive or toxic," said Mirko Albani from Esa's Earth Observation Ground Segment Department. The agency launched two near-identical Earth Remote Sensing (ERS) satellites in the 1990s. They were the most sophisticated planetary observers of their day, carrying a suite of instruments to track changes on the land, in the oceans and in the ai
