Ya, indeed, back when I posted. Its moving again back over the North Pacific. Doesn’t look like anyone in North America will get a good view of reentry.
Bump, crash, bang for reference.
I am hoping for reentry over Siberia, might get to see the pieces passing over Hawaii.
Checking homeowner’s insurance. Let’s see, fire, flood, earthquake... ah here it is, falling space stations. I’m covered.
Satview shows it passing over the Horn of Africa this time, and next time over Saudi Arabia and not far from Mecca....
Satview predicts it will will re-enter in the south Atlantic off of Uraguay/Paraguay/Brazil. USstratcom as it approaches West Africa; This would be about 8:00 PM central or 00:40 UT.
Ooh....what a thought.
The Grand Mosque in Mecca...a few hours from now. Suddenly, in the middle of prayers, a tremendous sonic boom, and then the building that houses the Ka’aba explodes, leaving a crater in the middle of the mosque.
Makes me smile just thinking about it.....
“Journalism” gold.
Now, now, the House of Saud is finally instituting reforms that turn SA into a Party Place. Everyone will Be happy!
Satview has updated their forcast for reentry over the south Pacific, somewhere near Easter Island. in about an hour.
If you know someone on Easter Island with a camera they need to be ready just in case! :)
It sailed over the Grand Mosque and is just about over China, where it ought to reenter.
Aerospace.org screen says waiting for reentry confirmation, so it looks like So Atlantic somewhere. Depending on how far it sailed through the air i suppose.
Satview Messg.
“The TIANGONG 1 satellite reentered the atmosphere Apr/02/2018 at 00:49 UTC with an approximate error of +/- 120 minute(s)
Eventually, even if the satellite has already reentered it still may be being plotted on the map, which shows its hypothetical location if it is still in Earth orbit. (tip)”
Its offcourse and over the atlantic.
True, nothing to worry about. They have no nasty 2nd amendment in China. I’m sure they’ll come in peaces.
