Everyone knew that it was pushed by the space station crew. Dubbed Suitsat-1, the unneeded Russian Orlan spacesuit filled mostly with old clothes was fitted with a faint radio transmitter and released to orbit the Earth. The suit circled the Earth twice before its radio signal became unexpectedly weak. Suitsat-1 continued to orbit every 90 minutes until it burned up in the Earth&#8217;s atmosphere after a few weeks. Pictured, the lifeless spacesuit was photographed in 2006 just as it drifted away from space station. via NASA <a href=\"https:\/\/apod.nasa.gov\/apod\/ap210328.html\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A spacesuit floated away from the International Space Station 15 years ago, but no investigation was conducted.
