Satellite falls to earth

Posted by 6rob on November 10, 2013 at 3:53pm in Mr Bruns 360 Message Board

A European satellite is slowly falling to earth. They don't know where it is going to land, says ESA (European Space Agency). The satellite is expected to enter the atmosphere between 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM EST. it is traveling about 126 kilometer or 80 mph.

Should we be scared? if yes why?

    I don't think we should be too scared. It's probably going to burn up in reentry, but even if it doesn't, it's still not that big. It's also probably going to hit areas that aren't populated, at least if the ESA is right. I like the orbit tracker on the ESA's website. What do you think will happen?
