Chinese Rocket that Delivered Military Spy Satellites Breaks Up Over Texas

This post has been updated with a statement from U.S. Space Command and additional information on the path of the debris.

The second stage of a Chinese rocket that delivered a trio of military surveillance satellites in June disintegrated over Texas on Wednesday, USNI News has learned.

The four-ton component of a Chang Zheng 2D ‘Long March’ rocket punched through the atmosphere on Wednesday over Texas at 17,000 miles per hour and disintegrated, two defense officials confirmed to USNI News on Thursday.

Military officials have yet to find any debris from the rocket stage, however USNI News understands the debris field could be miles wide and several hundred miles long.

I've often wondered what happens when some of the space junk floating around drops down on a nuclear power plant or a major city somewhere.
