The CCP space junk is 6h18m from landing, travelling at over 38 thousand MPH and 146 km above the surface - and falling

Mike Lindell already made a massive pillow to catch it. We’re good ?
...And after that happens...

LMAO!
if God has a sense of humor today , maybe if will fall on the ccp buildings....
DC is fenced off for a reason
That all came down 2 weeks ago.. and not coming back per Cap Police / Senator Roy Blunt (R-MO)

typo I can't correct the headline its speed is 28 thousand mph.
that's going to scratch the paint, a tad
Sky Event in 6hrs and counting.....
That would be more like 28,000 kilometers per hour. Equivalent to 17,000 mph. But the re-entry process will slow it down considerably.
Watch it land on the Arizona audit..
Please grease no be right
Let me guess, it’s somehow headed straight for the AZ audit site...
Any the news will only cover the tragedy at the carnival
so they say
whoops there goes DC or AZ
Lived in SF in '60s - '70s and, no, they can't drive. Lol.
Ooooohhhhhh!
SNAP!
I love the smell of burning clutch plates.....comin in the air vents! ?
Remember that extended mission the X-37 was on? I have a feeling we put something in orbit that junks the Chi-Comm rockets. ?
I think my point flew right over your head.
Yes, Chinese rocket is coming down. Did you know this also happened in 2020?
Chinese rockets seem to be not making it back to Earth as planned.... and my suggestion is the secret mission of the X-37 may have had something to do with both of these rocket crashes.
But much like when the Colombia came in skipping across the atmosphere (as this one is).. it will leave a chunk here, a bit here.. like 5 states from Nevada to Texas IIRC had little flaps and pieces flitter down. It's not going to spike like a cannonball.. or worse... Lawn Dart

Anyone remember when Skylab reentered?
Just the same then as is now, all sorts of panic and fearmongering.
Just read up on that recently.. was 90 mile sprinkle of trash.

Was that the one Taco Bell set up a target in the ocean for?
Yes. The US got the same kind of angry reaction from the world we are showing China. Lots of wild speculation about what would happen. It was 5 times the size of this falling rocket and some pretty big chunks survived.
Has anyone calculated trajectory and likely impact locations .
IMPOSSIBLE since it is skipping along like a rock on a pond. Check out Altitude going up and down randomly: (went up 163-165 as I typed) edit now 173+
Get ready 4 impact tho: https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/02/01/article-2094738-118A758B000005DC-950_634x436.jpg
Absolute tosh. If it is going up and down, then it is a controlled attack. Falling debris can be calculated easily.
Not if you don't know the ballistic coefficient of the pieces as they tear apart. Or the drag vectors due to shape vs. center of gravity.
yes, Turkmenistan is looking to have a bad night
Why Turkmenistan? What does it mean? Is this deep state or white hats?
I wonder if my tin-foil helmet will protect me? Gheez I’d better make one for Fido...
Flip their dog bowl upside down, place on their head and duct tape it.. easy peasy.
DONE ✅
How about two dog bowls, wear even when outside; and I raise you a fouci?
They only predict because it is fully functional controlled entry into Mars... this isn't. Ever heard of the graveyard where they can actually steer bad space junk in if they can control re-entry. 161 times already:
https://gizmodo.com/this-watery-graveyard-holds-161-sunken-spaceships-1703212211
A probe landing on Mars encounters an atmosphere that is only 1% of the density of Earth's atmosphere. Practically vacuum. Perturbing forces are much less.
Interesting to note that US Space Command called it a rocket.
US Space Command said that it too is carefully tracking the rocket's location during the uncontrolled re-entry, but stressed that it "cannot be pinpointed until within hours of its re-entry," currently projected to happen on Saturday.
The US military went so far as to clarify that no, it does not have orders to shoot down the rocket at this time - though we can imagine plans would change if it were confirmed to be hurling toward New York City or Washington DC. "We have the capability to do a lot of things but we don't have a plan to shoot it down as we speak," Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters Thursday.

It's a booster rocket.. like the Space Shuttle used to have 2 of plus the orange fuel tank. This one just went up too far and didn't fall into Ocean like they should.
That's because it is a rocket. Duh. Exhausted rocket stages are (you guessed it) rockets. Burnt out & mostly empty of propellant. Why "shoot down" something that is already on a death spiral? What would "shooting it down" accomplish, except to scatter the debris at high altitude, increase the landfall footprint, and make it even harder to predict where and when it will land?
because, most reports that I have previously read, refer to it as a failed satellite the recent references to it actually being a rocket was new to me.
Was this a recent launch of some payload that I missed ? When did the launch happen ?
Hopefully it will burn up on re-entry
That is the general expectation and the common fate.
I say that it should become a training exercise and become target practice for our Military as soon as it invades our space.
No, they don't. Just because the military keeps secrets does not mean they are concealing superpowers.
"Hello boys, I'M BAAAAACK!!!" ?
Airspace control does not begin until the object is below 100 km altitude. Then, you can run after it with a speed cop and give it a ticket. "Target practice" would be on the level of shooting at a flock of geese with a rifle. A useless exercise.
Wouldn't it be great if our Space Force bumped it a bit and caused it to fall on Xi's house? That would be worthy of a high five!
It would be poetic irony if it vaporized DC.
still claiming they dont know where its going to land?
one claim ive been doubting, they know roughly where
The density of the air at that altitude is partly dependent on solar radiation. Since that fluctuates, they have a hard time determining how much drag is acting on it as it orbits. At least that's what they tell us.
Right on!
So, rocket scientists should be able to use math to calculate pinpoint precision where this will land. Anyone heard this yet?
I just finished listening to the prophecy re the asteroid that would drop west of Puerto Rico and cause such a tsunami to wipe out our east coast. OK this thing is not an asteroid but could it do as much damage? From what I hear its bigger and heavier than an average asteroid.
Wouldn't break up on reentry if it's a solid rod of tungsten. Just saying. Sure everyone, it's just space debris.
Interesting that it is capable of maintaining altitude over 20 hours and not gain or lose any speed, yet, at 04:00 hours yesterday changes its mind and takes a nosedive to 180 kilometers at 28 thousands kilometers an hour.
I expect it to have impact. Let's hope somewhere in an ocean far from shore, instead of the madrid vault zone.
It drops 38 kilometers a day with 146 left. That gives us what? 3 days and a bit?
no, impact in less than 6 hours
If that thing hits the 3 Gorges Dam, that would be truly Biblical!
