Have any satellites collided (crashed) before? If so when?

Answer 1

June 25, 1997
While practicing manual docking procedures, astronauts on the Russian Space Station Mir lost control of a Progress resupply ship. The ship then crashed into the space station, causing the cabins to depressurize and damage to the station's solar panels.

Answer 2

As far as I know, that's happened only once--a couple of russian satellites in nearly the same orbit bumbed into each other a few years back. During the 1980s, I believe, but I can't recall the exact date. Sorry.

Answer 3

Aside from a couple of rendezvous and docking accidents, probably not. There was one Russian geostationary satellite that got knocked off course for unknown reasons, but no other satellite was ever identified as having hit it.

Answer 4

O because it is 2007 and your an honorary double agent
top secret, I suppose I can report. 3 hot news items. One is
western alliance star 3 corrugation inspectors for long haul
ship safety did hover, and magnetize and burst into fire,debris
over London in 1988. Not much recovered, these were size
3 of sat listings, so about 200 footers. Then there was the
crash in Russia of 1989 of the millenium Y systems 2 set of
data storage, the new systems were over reaching and flew
into a building in an abandoned city. Finally crashing together
about one mile towards Moscow hill area, no injuries no data
on how it happened. Finally in 2002 the rebel satellites of
Pakistan found each other over New York state about 40 miles
north wooded of Syracuse, near the lakes area. Some radar
box recovered said they were of Korean origin rebels missing
since 1975 indictments versus North Vietnam, real science
fiction outfit known for over 100 blackbox incidents.
