Old Russian satellite turns in outermost circle (3)
I believe the answer is:
rim
This could be a double definition.
'old russian satellite' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'turns in outermost circle' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see an association between them that I can't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for rim that I've seen before include "Outer edge of a wheel" , "Circular outer edge" , "An edge, canyon or cup" , "'Brim, lip (3)'" , "Flange" .)
