Heads Up!!!Falling Satellite Arrives on Sunday

What is it? A one-tonne European satellite (GOCE) that ran out of fuel and is coming down pretty fast.
News here: http://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt...-s&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8&p=goce satellite

Will it hit your house? It just passed over Russia at 110 miles up and 4.9 miles per second.

That's a little bigger than a duck... isn't it? :coffee:

 

I'd say so. But no worries, they say that after it breaks up (and bursts into flames) the biggest piece should weigh no more than 200 lbs.

Just a small bump on the head. Might need some stitches tho.

 

Hope it lands here... I need some computer parts.

 

I got my eyes on the ion propulsion engine, myself.

I could use it on my Jeep maybe.

 

Interesting that no one really knows where its going to fall. It'll be no laughing matter if tiu see it coming your direction.

 

Duck..quack quack

Heads up

 

Mods.. please remove the word 'Duck' from my header before someone else decides to take a quack.. I mean crack at it.

Thanx in advance..

Yes it is kind of unusual that they have not stated where it is going to hit....because they always want everyone to know "it's going to fall into the ocean". Who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky and it wall fall on odumma or killary ~

 

They'll have a pretty good idea by tomorrow afternoon, I'm sure.

Might even hit on Monday..

 

Uh oh, it's over Australia now..
