NASA gives 1-hour window for satellite's plunge to Earth
I never go on news1130.com at home and I'm kinda happy I did after reading this. Perfect time to go out side chill and smoke a blunt

NASA gives 1-hour window for satellite's plunge to Earth - News1130

Quote:
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (NEWS1130) - NASA is narrowing the time frame on when a five-tonne satellite is expected to collide with Earth.

NASA said late Friday that the satellite is now expected to fall from the sky between 8:45 p.m. and 9:45 p.m. PDT.

Canada and Africa are in the potential crosshairs, although most of the satellite should burn up during re-entry. The United States isn't entirely out of the wood as the possible strike zone skirts Washington state.

Satellite updates are available at NASA - UARS.

Let's have a mini RS meet to see which one of us gets lucky.

Does ICBC cover Satellite debris damage?


All kidding aside, I thought it was not going to poop in our neck of the woods.
