Final Entry For Phobos-Grunt

The failed Russian attempt to reach a moon of Mars, Phobos-Grunt, crashed into the South Pacific just short of the coast of Chile, according to the final official report.

The report puts the main crash area 50 miles off the coast. It notes, too, that some pieces of the probe could have reached land, but there have been no reports of injury or damage from such debris.
