Washington, April 29 (IANS) An unmanned Russian spacecraft carrying 6,000 pounds of food, fuel and scientific experiments for the crew at the International Space Station (ISS) has gone out of control and is probably going to crash into the earth’s atmosphere soon, said media reports and NASA on Wednesday.
According to NASA, “the Russian flight control team attempted to command the vehicle over four orbits flying over Russian ground sites with no success”.
Currently spinning out of control in orbit, the spacecraft “will probably burn up on re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere”.
