A Soviet spacecraft is plunging back to Earth this week 53 years after it was launched Just weeks ago, scientists warned that a "city killer" asteroid had a small chance of hitting Earth. While that prediction was thankfully revised, the planet may have to worry about another object plummeting down from the heavens — a 1970s spacecraft called Kosmos 482. The Soviet-era spacecraft meant to land on Venus a half century ago is expected to soon plunge uncontrolled back to Earth. It's too early to know where the half-ton mass of metal might come down or how much of it will survive reentry, according to space debris-tracking experts.

The conclave's black and white smoke indicates if there's a new pope. Here's why the tradition exists. Black smoke rising from the Sistine Chapel chimney on Wednesday and again Thursday morning indicated that a new pope had not been chosen to replace Pope Francis on the first ballot. Using smoke to communicate to the public whether a new pope has been elected is somewhat a recent tradition for the Catholic Church. Cardinal electors in the conclave, which originates from a Latin word meaning "with key," are locked away with no contact to the outside world. So they use one of the oldest methods of long-distance communication: smoke signals.
