[edit] Reason for decay?
Why did the spacecraft's orbit decay? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.162.0.42 (talk) 19:26, 1 May, 2006 (UTC)
- It was probably slowed down by friction from the atmosphere, until it no longer had sufficient velocity to stay in orbit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by PCSrules2018 (talk • contribs) 23:24, 9 August, 2006 (UTC)
