The results of the verification of the incident that took place this March in the American town of Napples have become known.
Then an unidentified object hit the roof of one of the houses, broke through it and flew through two floors. The owner's son, who was inside the house at the time, was miraculously unhurt.
After careful analysis, it turned out that the fallen object was a battery support on an Inconel metal alloy pallet weighing 7.2 kg and 10 cm high.
NASA concluded that this is the result of the ejection of space debris from the ISS, produced three years ago. It was supposed to completely burn up in the atmosphere, but something went wrong and one fragment flew to Florida.
Space Agency has promised to improve its engineering systems so that such a thing will not happen again, writes Space News.
