ISS threatening cloud of debris


Recall that a Proton-M, which was supposed to deliver in orbit two satellites, could not do so because of problems in the upper stage. Accident occurred at the beginning of August, and has since drifted upper stage in low-Earth orbit. But on August 16 he exploded, creating a cloud of 500 fragments.
