Skylab 2.0 (Zany-Random-Doom-Remix)..

Head's up!  Or not..  No worries, if you're in North America..  Watch Out!  Head fake/Just kiddin'..  BAM!
So remember to keep looking up while hiding underneath something sturdy..  Real sturdy..

Meanwhile, I have a really hard time believing authorities have no way of knowing where the satellite will land, but they do know that it won't be North America..  The best mathematicians and scientists with all their advanced theorems and video and tracking technology can't tell us the trajectory of one satellite and its possible debris trails?  Maybe it is as simple as they say, and I'm the one overestimating the intellectual abilities of Earth's Scientific Elite.  That must be it.  I mean, seriously;  Not even an idea of potential landfalls?

Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean I can't see that maybe I'm too paranoid..  Or not.  The jury is still out..

Falling Space Junk

Huge Defunct Satellite to Plunge to Earth Soon, NASA Says From Space.com. Excerpts:


Heads up! That's the word from NASA today (Sept. 7) given the impending re-entry of a 6.5-ton satellite through Earth's atmosphere.
The huge Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) is expected to re-enter Earth's atmosphere in an uncontrolled fall in late September or early October. Much of the spacecraft is expected to burn up during re-entry, but some pieces are expected to make it intact to the ground, NASA officials said.

The U.S. space agency will be taking measures to inform the public about the pieces of the spacecraft that are expected to survive re-entry.


Well, thanks for that, NASA.  I'm gonna go buy a helmet.
