Soviet spacecraft Kosmos 482 is finally hurtling back towards Earth

After failing to escape Earth's orbit in 1972, the out-of-control Soviet spaceship Kosmos 482 is finally returning to Earth. Astronomers have captured this ominous footage showing the Kosmos 482 streaking overhead at 17,000 miles per hour. Scientists are carefully tracking the falling spaceship's approach to work out where it might land.
