Spy Satellite Threatens Earth




How many of you remember when Skylab fell back to Earth and scattered remains across Australia, and the Pacific Ocean? Well in a story I am intrigued about it seems we shall have a spy satellite coming home "uncontrolled" in the very near future.
The story reads:
A large U.S. spy satellite has lost power and could hit the Earth in late February or early March, government officials said Saturday.


The satellite, which no longer can be controlled, could contain hazardous materials, and it is unknown where on the planet it might come down, they said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because the information is classified as secret. It was not clear how long ago the satellite lost power, or under what circumstances.


As it gets closer to the date, we can do an update, and please write me with your guess as to where it will hit, and the winner will receive a prize, perhaps a print of a falling satellite. I will think more on that, and let you know!! Thanks!
