A 2,6-ton block of used batteries from the ISS will fall to Earth in the next XNUMX hours

Before noon on March 9, a 2630-kilogram EP9 (Exposed Pallet 9) unit of spent batteries, dropped from the ISS in March 2021, is expected to enter the Earth’s atmosphere. At that time, it was the most massive object ejected from the station. This method of disposing of used equipment is a common practice - such objects most often burn safely in the atmosphere.
