An American telescope fell from its orbit and burned up in the atmosphere over Indonesia. The Swift telescope remained in orbit for 22 years. Earlier this year, NASA tried to save it: they hired an American company to launch a special device that was supposed to connect the telescope and raise it to a higher orbit, but it went out of control.
