    The homepage for the UARS satellite is at

    Enjoy the show, as the satellite is a position in order for it, to flare from your location. Where
    the sun, satellite and you are located, has an effect on the satellite flare's. When you see a
    flare from UARS, I won't. Eventually it will stop flaring from the same area of sky, and will
    flare from a different area of sky. You have to be at the right location. Now if the was someway
    to generate a prediction of a uars flare just like a iridium flare. In order to do that we have to
    figure out what is causing the flare, plus other factors.

    Hopefully be a long time before it decay's from orbit, as it is a nice visual satellite.
    I try to use Alan's decay program to see when it might come down, but it won't give an answer.
