Signals have been received from the Danish Ørsted satellite that appears to have survived an encounter with debris from a Russian satellite that it was feared would damage the machine.

“I am delighted. It’s good to know that our old friend is still spaceborne,” says Terma Space Division’s Carsten Jørgensen who has kept contact with Ørsted since it was sent into space in 1999.

The Ørsted satellite is packed with instruments to measure the earth’s magnetic field as well as particle radiation and to pick up meteorological data.
