Watch Out for Falling Satellite on Your Roof

Watch Out for Falling Satellite on Your Roof

A defunct spy satellite lost its control and propulsion and is believed to hit Earth by the late February or March and no one knows where it will land. This is not the first time this ever happened. In the late 70's, Skylab plunged into the atmosphere and created debris over southern Australian coast. Luckily, no one was hurt. In 1991, a Soviet space station reentered our planet and hit a town in Argentina scattering fragments of metal all over the place. In Oklahoma, a report on a woman who said has been hit by falling debris on her shoulder came about the time Delta reentered the atmosphere. She even had the picture of the object which struck her.
