They have to put an end point to analysis run. No point running it any further because they are 99.999% sure its going to be a smoking lump of melted metal days before that.
 
Okey :) Thanks.
I saw it "disappear" a second time, this time earlier.. hmm

Well I guess there is no flying for you, to Cyprus the.
It's seems to pass over the Mediterranean a couple of times a day.

It would be quite ironic if it fell down over Peking though.

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?

Nothing published on notice to airmen system. I shall see if there is anything tomorrow. But I doubt it.
 
An estimate of the actual landing area should be possible tomorrow (Friday), with it coming down Saturday or Sunday. It's a chaotic system though, so predictions will be pretty big ranges.
 
I can't find any one taking Bets, giving odds. on impact zone [ponder]

IF it hits east coast US, was it really "uncontrolled"
 

A lot of Americans wouldn't think so...

I am more concerned about it hitting US soil than I am about it coming anywhere near me in the air.

The thing is its not just this one they have multiple more similar missions before the space station is complete.

I suspect the next ones they will have a lump of explosives onboard and blow it up in the final stages of re entry.

 
by starting the space program with something more than zero tolerance for space junk debris, the door has been opened. The imp is out of the bottle.

The calculations don't seems much better now.

Estimated Reentry Date: predicted between 0100 UTC May 8 and 1900 UTC May 9.

You're trying to scare me now. In my case that's a margin of error of either -4.5 or +10 minutes, or no worries. depending on if that's an upswing orbit, or a downswing.

I found a site with a more up-to-date prediction.
Southern Europe keep your eyes open. Even if it doesn't land there (hope not), there's a fair chance of being able to see it streaking through the sky ...

Doesn't look like it will go back home to China, but there are still plenty of landmasses within the re-entry window.
 
Well right now you seem to be safe 1503-44, by the way didn't you get a lava chamber?

The current window of 2021-05-09 02:11 UTC ±190 minutes

ITS £_÷/=£#%&^£ GETTING CLOSER!!!

Now its more like +/- 1.5 minutes!!!

Maybe I'll just get some Swedish vodka, climb up on the roof and take pictures.

It might take out the south side of the mountain. Maybe the 1000m high ridge to the south will shield me. Geeeeeezzzzzz!!! Hope it comes in at a really flat angle. Man. The south side of that ridge is not the place to be.

Whats its ETA? Is it that 02:30h GMT. Thats 3h 38m from now.

We have to set are hope to the +-139 minutes.
But then again it gives it four more chances, [ponder]

Yes Swedish vodka and Tenerife lemon "vodka sour" that will do the trick.

With a bit of luck you might be able to sell of some "space" junk.
There might be a collectors market for it?

Best Regards A
