Japan’s HTV-6, or "Kounotori-6", supply ship re-entered the Earth’s atmosphere at 1506 UTC on 5 February, more than a week after leaving the International Space Station. The onboard Kounotori Integrated Tether Experiment (KITE), designed to clear space junk from the Earth’s orbit, ended in failure. http://www.sat-nd.com/archive/?id=2017020600
