The fireproof parts of the damaged Progress MS-21 spacecraft, which undocked from the International Space Station (ISS) the day before, are flooded in the Pacific Ocean. This is reported by Roscosmos in the Telegram channel .
As stated in the state corporation, the ship was deorbited, entered the atmosphere and collapsed.
“Unburned elements <…> fell in the non-navigable area of the South Pacific,” the statement said.
