MIR
Mir, the Russian space station, was deorbited and intentionally crashed into the South Pacific Ocean on March 23, 2001. It had been in orbit since 1986.
Mir, the Russian space station, was deorbited and intentionally destroyed in 2001 by allowing it to re-enter the Earth's atmosphere and burn up upon re-entry. This was done to safely dispose of the aging space station after 15 years in orbit.
The MIR space station re-entered Earth's atmosphere and crashed into the Pacific Ocean on March 23, 2001.

No. It crashed back to earth in the late 90's.
Mir was launched in 1986, and remained in orbit until March 2001 when it burned up in the earth's atmosphere after it was intentionally de-orbited when its orbit became too low.
The Russian space station MIR fell to earth and burned up years ago.
The MIR space station was intentionally deorbited and crashed into the Pacific Ocean in 2001 after 15 years in orbit. It was the first modular space station and orbited the Earth for over a decade, conducting numerous scientific experiments and observations.
After 15 years in orbit and visits by 104 humans, the Russian MIR space station ended it's life by falling back to earth and mostly burning up as it reentered the atmosphere. Some large pieces of debris plunged into the Pacific ocean.
Antarctica's Vostok station is the record holder for the coldest temperature on earth. Vostok is a Russian scientific station. Australia claims a pie-shaped slice of Antarctica, which is an invalid claim based on the Antarctic Treaty. Vostok Station -- a Russian research station, is located in this slice of Antarctica.
The Mir Space Station was too big and too expensive to be recovered from Earth. In 2001 it was deorbited and allowed to burn up in the Earth's atmosphere. Any remains crashed into the ocean. Their are Mir mockups and artifacts on display at various locations around the world. The Mir Space Station was too big and too expensive to be recovered from Earth.
