Telescópio da Nasa que operou por quase 22 anos entra na atmosfera sobre a Indonésia

NASA confirmed that the Neil Gehrels Swift space telescope reentered Earth's atmosphere over North Sumatra, Indonesia, after nearly 22 years in orbit. Most of the roughly 1.5-ton spacecraft was expected to burn up, though NASA did not say whether any debris reached the ground; the telescope had detected more than 2,000 gamma-ray bursts and contributed to thousands of scientific papers.
