Extended Cosmos-482 image analyses pointed out an elongated detail that is attached to the landing capsule - a detail which potentionally could be the parachute - had actually a curved shape and left the descent craft from a certain position.

#Cosmos482 image analyses on signal consistency. Appearance of detail Cosmos-482 (upper images) compared to artificial structures caused by seeing effects (lower images). All analyses results point at the physical existance of an attached structure to the Cosmos-482 descent craft.

#Cosmos482 One of the detailed video analyses shows why I strongly think that the visible attached structure must be real (physical). The thin sharp structure pops up only in good moments of seeing. Frame 1 & 2 are blurred by seeing. Right: Examples of motion (tracking) and seeing artifacts.

#Cosmos-482 Image analyses conclusion: As the visible structures are clearly deformed by the seeing and other forms of movement of the object, it must be concluded that they are physical (real). You can think of this like details on planets that are deformed in each frame of a video sequence. 1/2

New imagery of 1972 launched intended #Venera probe to visit #Venus but that is stuck in Earth orbit for 53 years, likely confirms that some structure is connected to the capsule. Not impossible that it's the parachute that already came out the capsule a long time ago, but this is still speculation!

First full high res images #Cosmos482 landing capsule, the intended Venera spacecraft that is stuck in Earth orbit for 53 years and soon will reenter. Angular comparison to Starlink satellite bus, but with 130km range difference. We clearly see a compact round object! More soon!

Few people realize that the #ISS was just a few years ago still in module construction, now already is talked about deorbiting. This snapshot from the ground shows the #Nauka module flying autonomously to the station after a 14 year(!) delay. The long thin line is the solar array.

Nanosail-D2 was NASA's first experimental solarsail. I took the first high-res images at the time. This reprocessing shows the deployed sail in never before seen detail. We see attitude, angle, shape and other information of the sail in low Earth orbit.

This is a high-resolution telescopic view of the less then 1.5 meter wide first generation #Starlink satellite bus seen from 545km. Rare is the visibility of the solar array- mostly invisible in this so-called shark-fin configuration in operational orbit. The array is very faint.

Telescope images #Starlink V2 mini show effect use of mirror reflection techniques on the satellite bus - the big dark mid section is actually a reflection of the blackness of space. The use of dielectric mirror film is one of
@SpaceX latest brightness mitigation techniques.

Telescope images #Starlink V1.5 versus #Starlink V2 mini satellites in operational orbit. The much more darkened satellite bus of the V2 mini is obvious. The solar panels are normally not visible in this configuration, just rarely, like in the image bottom left.
