Later that day, the Russian space agency Roscosmos confirmed that the lander had harmlessly impacted the Indian Ocean at 6:24 a.m. UTC west of Jakarta, Indonesia. The condition of the craft is unknown.

The craft was designed to land on Venus unharmed; it is likely in one piece at the bottom of the ocean.
