Do you mean the rocket that apparently will fall according to the best chyness calculations in any place between the south of the north pole and the north of the south pole?
It's not a missile. It's a ten-story-house size rocket launcher or whatnot that was not supposed to go into orbit, but it did. It was supposed to do some other controlled thing, and stay behind.
However it did make orbit, by accident. But it has no controls to guide its orbit, because it was never supposed to be in orbit at all.
So its orbit is decaying.
So it has to fall to earth, and there is no way to tell it where to fall, so it is on its own.
It will come down to earth in the next two weeks, more or less.
The possible zone of it coming down is a world wide band which is south of New York and north of New Zealand.
I have no idea, that is just what some man said on a personal video. Not official.
This isn't fun but he said it was not intentional. An accident.
At such a height and speed, wouldn't it had already crashed to earth by now if it was going to do so? Falling uncontrollably and at that size they say won't land until around May 10th?
🤔🤔
Isn't May 10th when they were hoping to have election audit completed?
Well who knows. It isn't "falling" its orbit is decaying. It is at present zipping around the world every ninety minutes, always in a slightly different, and a slightly lower path. If I understand correctly.
Nobody is really sure what will happen or when or where, is all I know.
Most of the pieces landed in the Atlantic Ocean, but pieces of debris were reported in Ivory Coast, and experts calculated that it had missed New York by minutes.
In 2017, the Tiangong-1 space station also fell back to the planet in an uncontrolled descent after the Chinese’s CNSA space agency said that they had lost control of the lab.
Much like this rocket, engineers could not accurate predict where the craft would land. Wind and weather could have sent it from one continent to another; it eventually burnt up over the middle of the South Pacific."

When do we get to hold ¡CHYNA! responsible for all this shit? What if it falls on to a daycare full of poc babies? Think of the children!
Pretty sure our satellites can tell the difference between a rocket and a missile.
Blast it to smithereens Space Force!!
Need to dig up the old Skylab t-shirts and other stuff that sold so well in the 70's.
Just change it to Skyrab and put it up on Etsy or something.
Eh, what??

From 29 APR though.

A quick search does NOT bring up any mention of this, by the big, big, names in American news.
The search says it is being reported in the US by: Forbes, Business Insider, Fox 35 Orlando, Gizmodo, and Global News CA.
It is written up in the British press.
It might be interesting to see how this is covered in the American big name press. If, and when, and how.
Edit: CBS has now mentioned it:
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rocket-debris-china-space-station-launch-earth-atmosphere-uncontrolled-landing/
Wow, I had no idea it was half the size of Amy Schumer.
This could be pretty yuge.
The British say this, in their Independent UK:
"Has this happened before?
Another Chinese rocket fell to Earth in May 2020.
Most of the pieces landed in the Atlantic Ocean, but pieces of debris were reported in Ivory Coast, and experts calculated that it had missed New York by minutes.
In 2017, the Tiangong-1 space station also fell back to the planet in an uncontrolled descent after the Chinese’s CNSA space agency said that they had lost control of the lab.
Much like this rocket, engineers could not accurate predict where the craft would land. Wind and weather could have sent it from one continent to another; it eventually burnt up over the middle of the South Pacific."
It's the aliens messing with chinese weapon systems. /s
Word is May 8, my money is on Maricopa county.
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rocket-debris-china-space-station-launch-earth-atmosphere-uncontrolled-landing/
Yes, that article says May 8.
UPI has this:
https://www.upi.com/Top_News/World-News/2021/05/04/china-China-Long-March-rocket-out-of-orbit/8991620136900/
Otherwise there is no mention of this in the American mainstream media, apart from the CBS article. The British have written about it.
