The Sky Is Falling!! Like For Real!! (UARS is crashing down Friday)
Though I might have been on a bit of a sugar high (I blame TammyFlores1) this really is serious stuff.. or well at least cool stuff. I was all ready to ditch work tomorrow and go out driving if this thing was going to fall anywhere near me but alas it looks like it wont be on this continent. Seriously though watch out you don’t want a bus falling on you.

Update #10
Fri 23 Sep 2011 10:45:08 AM EDT
As of 10:30 a.m. EDT on Sept. 23 2011 the orbit of UARS was 100 miles by 105 miles (160 km by 170 km). Re-entry is expected late Friday Sept. 23 or early Saturday Sept. 24 Eastern Daylight Time. Solar activity is no longer the major factor in the satellite’s rate of descent. The satellite’s orientation or configuration apparently has changed and that is now slowing its descent. There is a low probability any debris that survives re-entry will land in the United States but the possibility cannot be discounted because of this changing rate of descent. It is still too early to predict the time and location of re-entry with any certainty but predictions will become more refined in the next 12 to 18 hours.
