Right about now, Cluster's Salsa satellite is taking the plunge into Earth's atmosphere. Farewell, Salsa! Thank you for your service!🫡

A few minutes ago, the Cluster operations team successfully listened one final time for Salsa via the Estrack ground station in Kourou. Communication with the satellite has now reached its end.

The exact moment on Friday when the @ESA_Cluster operations team recovered Salsa for one final orbit after its searing hot final perigee knocked the spacecraft into survival mode. That final orbit comes to an end in just ~90 minutes. 👏🥲

Salsa will soon be taking a plunge into Earth's atmosphere ☁️🛰️ Not much of the 550 kg satellite will survive the reentry. If small parts do survive, they will make a splashdown in a remote area of the Pacific Ocean. For updates see our blog 👉 blogs.esa.int/rocketscience/
