💨 Abstract

The Russian satellite Cosmos 2553, suspected of being linked to nuclear anti-satellite weapons, appears to be malfunctioning and may be no longer operational, according to Doppler radar data and optical observations. Launched shortly before Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, the satellite was believed to be a radar satellite for Russian intelligence and a radiation testing platform.
