China's Out-of-Control Space Station May Hit Earth This Month

The Chinese Space station is still orbiting nearly 200 miles above Earth.??But its course is getting closer and closer-??And it may be re-entering the atmosphere this month.??While the exact time and date of its crash-down is impossible to predict-??the European Space Agency expects the event to occur between march 24 and April 19th. ??According to them, the 8-and-a-half ton space station will land… somewhere in Europe.??That is, somewhere in Spain, France, Portugal or Greece… probably…??But you shouldn’t be too worried about being pelted with space debris.??Aerospace experts say that your chances of being hit by station parts falling from the sky-??Are smaller than being struck by lighting.??And since the space station is traveling at 16,000 miles per hour and most of it will burn up on re-entry-??Some lucky European Earthlings are going to have a front row seat to some historic fire in the sky.??
