URGENT: NASA: U.S. back in UARS satellite strike zone!!!!

If it lands at your house, the legal thing to do is contact NASA because it is their property. If you try to sell it then you're breaking the law.

I know this sounds ungrateful, as many people in this day in age cant find a job no matter how hard they try, but I hope this thing crashes into my workplace rendering the office unusable

The way things have been going, it'll land on a nuclear power plant. Or something equally as destructive.

If I could wish for it to land someplace useless, I'd wish it to land on The House of Representatives, while in session. Or the GOP Debates.

As long as I have the debris safely tucked away in my shed and any damage to my yard repaired by the time they come snooping around they'll never know I have it. Please land in my yard, I would love to own even a part of a satellite.

Need Another Space Agency is basicaly saying that they have no idea when it will begin its entry....i guess Never A Straight Answer has sorta been saying that all along..maybe Nothing And Something Advocates just threw out the sept 23 date for sh#ts and giggles....or did it because of what some percieve as a significant date.......i guess the window is open till sept 27..and then if nothing happens...nothing happened

NASA is not an international company. The taxpayers in the USA pay for it. Why shouldn't they talk about the US?

Should they speak more about other countries than the one they are based in?
Seems silly to think that way.
But I am a citizen of the USA so it is all about ME ME ME....

Now were talking (hypothetically of course)
Maybe even burry it what you think?

oh if it's africa, then yeah.

For those of us that would love to gain possession of this satellite as a collectors piece. We must take.into.account that space is full of radiation, unfiltered from the sun and many other sources.

I thought about this last night... just throwing it out there

I still wanna see it though! I hope, I hope!

Now that is a scary possibility, chances are very small though (I hope)....

Alot of people would call false flag on it...

Oh, don't ya worry ya sweet English hot cross buns about us Africans!!

We ALWAYS get EVERYTHING like years after everyone else. So if it's gonna hit Africa, by that time it will be but a mere grain of dust in the wind. Well, there will not actually be a grain that reaches us, it will only be a rumour that there was such a grain from the great American soil that was sent into space and came back as a spot of dust to bless Africa. But we will not toy-toy in the streets for that grain of dust that could have been but is not. We will not riot or strike for the taxes we could have charged the American people for their contribution to African global warming because of that grain of dust!

(We might create 2 million false grains of dust that could have been that saltelite and then sell them to all our cousins in the goverment because we can and they are the ones with the dosh...)

Dust to the dust: President Zuma will have marked the spot with an X where that great grain of American satelite dust might have landed and the barefoot kids will play hopscotch on that X with stones bigger than that grain of dust.

So, Africans, hide your Xes (and present spouses) next election.

Ag, God bless Africa... (smug sigh.)

Is it wrong to pray for most of the cast from Jersey Shore to fall victim to bigger pieces of trash than themselves?? wouldn't that be Ironic

I can see it now..

Snookie: Is that a shooting star???
Situation: whatever it is it's falling faster than our careers..
Snookie: I'll drink to that

The tracker on Fox has been down for me for hours now.

www.foxnews.com...


Someone help me find some free tracking software that will do the job via live second by second updates. There are lots if you search Google and iv'e tried Nova and Gpredict but i cant seem to get them to work in real time like they are supposed to.

Well I have a fish pond in my backyard so I guess I could dump it in there and toss some rocks on top of it. Oh and it's raining here so that should help my clean up effort, it's just a waiting game now.

None of them are "real time". They all use the orbital elements provided by USSTRATCOM to project the orbit. These orbital elements are updated fairly often but the trackers are not "real time".
