A Rocket Is Going To Fall Back On Earth And A Possible Landing Spot Is Somewhere In The Arab World

Avatar

Debris from a Chinese rocket is expected to fall back to Earth in an uncontrolled re-entry this weekend.

It is not clear where and when exactly the rocket parts will crash on the surface

The Long March 5B rocket was launched in late April to carry the first module of China’s future space station into orbit and the body of the rocket is currently circling Earth, about to enter the lower atmosphere.

Scientists across the world, including the Arab region, are watching the the path of the object and trying to figure out where it can possibly fall.

And the wider estimates do include Saudi Arabia and the overall region as possible landing spaces

Chinese state media has states that it hopes that the rocket might crash on inhabited land, suggesting it will fall somewhere in international waters.

Not to worry though, it is likely going to get shot down before it reached any habitable landed – should that be the case!
