Yesterday it looked as though at least some of it would come down in
Europe. Now the sun's quiet again and it has a few more hours of life.

It should be a sign of good luck to have space junk crash into your
village; Gods Must Be Crazy in titanium alloy.

I hope it doesn't hit Bognor Regis, (Booger Reegiz, I call it)
England.Ergo that is where that married Irish woman lives, wayyyyyyyyy
over yonder across the big pond.

Satellite junk/Space junk, what is the difference? Planet Earth is Made
of Space Junk.Junk Phone Home!

What time do they guesstimate that Satellite Junk will hit?

The latest guesstimate is between 0100 and 0400 UTC tomorrow, but
trending later.

That's 6 o'clock tonight here in Goonyville.

It will be in Flyover Territory, regardless.

was no sign of it when it went over here an hour ago. Seeing wasn't
especially good, but UARS is probably barely even warm yet.

Using Celestrak for the Keplerian elements and the 'Orbitron' tracking
program, you can see UARS track. The only problem may be that the orbit
is decaying so fast that the Keps cannot be updated often enough.

As I type this (2130 UTC), UARS now on an ascending pass in the southern
Pacific well off the coast of Chile, soon to be over Central America and
then Cuba.
