Hi: NASA says a school bus sized satellite will crash into earth later this month. http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/uars/index.html "As of Sept. 8, 2011, the orbit of UARS was 152 miles by 171 miles (245 km by 275 km) with an inclination of 57 degrees. Because the satellite's orbit is inclined 57 degrees to the equator, any surviving components of UARS will land within a zone between 57 degrees north latitude and 57 degrees south latitude. It is impossible to pinpoint just where in that zone the debris will land, but NASA estimates the debris footprint will be about 500 miles long." -- Have Fun, Brooke Clarke http://www.PRC68.com http://www.End2PartyGovernment.com/ _______________________________________________ Seesat-l mailing list http://mailman.satobs.org/mailman/listinfo/seesat-l
