“Huge Tumbling Satellite” - stinkin’ gymnast satellite of death. “I give it a 9.7. It didn’t quite stick the finish and I thought the Russian satellite was better.”

So whats the pay out if I bet $1000 that it won't hit me???LOL! I'll bet the payout's similar to a push at a blackjack table at Winstar Casino in OK: you don't win, but you still lose, because you have to pay the dealer $1 per hand (or so I've heard).

Gravity. It's not just a good idea. It's the law.

One could always hope it lands on the U.N. Lots of targets in there right now.

They really can’t just blow it up. The junk left in space would take out every other satellite that came along.

Love that pic. I'm keeping a copy.
It's perfect for one of my favorite sayings,
"Gravity is a law, not a suggestion."

They could have done it as it was coming down. They did not want to spend the money on it. Life is cheap.

The big 330lb chunk about 130MPH,the small bits up to 240MPH. It looks to be headed for the Pacific off the Oregon coast.
7:55PM-8:25PM PDT should be a light show over Oregon. Hard Hats suggested

Do you have any verification of that or is it just something you heard?

@UARS_Reentry says Washington State, not Oregon. Still in the Pacific, thankfully!
