The Space Pirate🏴☠️🥷🏻🚀@TheSpacePirateXThe first minutes after landing: specialists open the Biona-M descent module to remove containers with living organisms and hand them over to scientists.
afec7032 🇷🇺@robert_savitskyRoscosmos shows some views from inside the Bion-M №2 spacecraft, specifically from inside the mice container:
Do we know how many of the mice and other animals survived the re-entry?If I am not mistaken, in Bion-M-1 many mice died while the capsule was still in orbit.

So yes, it's coming back.No space force TLEs since Sep 12 (indeed the last one showing it in a 147 x 486 km orbit).Perhaps it already landed?New TLE from today show Bion-M at 264x279 km @ 96,92°. So, the previous data from September 12th may have been erroneous (inclination @95,5°).
