53 years ago, the Soviet Union launched a probe to Venus - KOSMOS 482 however it failed leaving Earth’s orbit and the 1 metre half a ton probe will crash onto Earth likely around May 10/11th
Because it was built to withstand the pressure and temperature of Venus, it will survive falling through our atmosphere.
Prediction of its precise impact is very difficult and may be worked out minutes or hours before crashing, however, anywhere within 52 degrees North to south is within the impact zone.
The likelihood is, it will crash into the oceans, however, before it does so if it occurs at night will appear as a bright slow moving shooting star.

OBD 0?

I remember the Sun setup at a gas station where I pumped gas. It was the super high tech equipment of the day.
OBD? No. Back then a tech actually had to do testing and use his skill to figure out what was needed. Today, repair people just want to throw parts at the problem (at your expense) until the problem went away. They don't think. Just plug in the OBD and guess.

On this day in 1983, Microsoft introduced their first 2-button computer mouse for the IBM PC, PC XT, and compatibles.

I have one just like it. And a copy of Windows 386!

LeBron James has just extended his NBA Record by losing his 107th Playoff Game. In the final 2 games of the series, LeBron scored a total of 5 points in the 4th quarter when his team needed him the most. Time for LeBron James to realize there's nothing he can do to change the fact that Michael Jordan will always be considered the GOAT.

They looked exactly like the meters on the machine on the right. I remember the manual had pages of drawings of the various squiggles that could appear on the O-Scope and what they indicated.
