After Phobos Grunt you might wonder what is in store for us ? or What is Next?

Here is another 2000kg Satellite on its way to earth in next two days.

Cosmos 2176 (also known as 21847) is a Russian (missile early warning) satellite launched from the Plesetsk cosmodrome aboard a Molniya rocket. It was part of the Oko constellation of satellites and covered the plane 6 - 119 degree longitude of ascending node

Here are some fact in breif
Type:     Kosmos Satellite
Int'l Designation:     1992 003A
Launched:     24 JAN 1992 @ 01:18 UTC
Mission:     Cosmos 2176

Launch Vehicle: Molniya-M
Launch Site: Plesetsk Cosmodrome LC43/3, Russia
Mass: 1900.0 kg

Here is the Latest map issued (17 Jan) by Center for Orbital and Re-Entry Studies (Click on Image to see larger view)

Legend  (what lines in the map indicate):
Yellow Icon - location of object at predicted reentry time
Orange Line - area of visibility at the predicted reentry time for a ground observer
Blue Line - ground track uncertainty prior to predicted reentry time (ticks at 5-minute intervals)
Yellow Line - ground track uncertainty after predicted reentry time (ticks at 5-minute intervals)
White Line - day/night divider at predicted reentry time (Sun location shown by White Icon)
Note: Possible reentry locations lie anywhere along the blue and yellow ground track.


When will it Reenter Earth ?
As per AEROSPACE - Center for Orbital & Re-entry Studies  ( as per 17 JAN 2012 07:43 UTC update) says : the Cosmos 2176  is actually predicted to re-enter at 04:25 a.m. on 18th Jan  (22.55 UTC  on 17th Jan ).                                                                                                                    However due to atmospheric and other effects it may re-enter Earth between 00:25 a.m. IST on 18th Jan (18.55 UTC  on 17th Jan) to 08:25 a.m.  IST  on 18th Jan (02.55 UTC on 18th Jan)

Joseph Remis (as per 16 Jan 21.53 update) says :  the Cosmos 2176  is actually predicted to re-enter at 1:51 p.m (8.21 UTC).
However due to atmospheric and other effects it may re-enter Earth between 10.51 a.m.  IST (5.21 UTC) to 04:51 p.m.  IST (11.21 UTC)

As per space-track.org ( as per 15th Jan 10.55 UTC update) says : the Cosmos 2176  is actually predicted to re-enter at  09.34 a.m. on 16th  (4.04 UTC on 16 Jan ). 
However due to atmospheric and other effects it may re-enter Earth between 09.34 a.m. IST on 14th Jan IST  (4.04 UTC on 14th Jan ) to  09.34 a.m. IST  (4.04 UTC on 18th Jan  ) on 18th Jan. www.skylab2012.tk


This satellites is Predicted to Reenter on 17th Jan 2012 at 19.15 UTC . (00:45:00 Wednesday January 18, 2012 in Indian Standard Time)  However satellite may re enter earth 15 hours before or Later due to various factors.

Where will it fall or what will happen to it ?
Not much is known about this aspect. Our efforts to trace a source in this regard for Last two days failed.
