English term or phrase: thruster burns
Starting on 6 July, a series of thruster burns are gradually lowering its orbit from 800 km to about 550 km, where there is little risk of it colliding with other satellites.
Instead of becoming a piece of space junk, ERS-2 will eventually enter Earth’s atmosphere and burn up.
