Just read at MSNBC that a large U.S. spy satellite will hit Earth by the end of February or early March.
Better keep our hard hats ready??? Here is the article: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22857051/ |

I think they are more interested in destroying secret instruments on board that could fall into the wrong hands than protecting the public. The destruction will create debris left in space, just like destruction of the Chinese Satalite.

All that debris will probably end up reentering faster than the original satellite would.
I'm more interested in whether the missile will actually hit the satellite. -------------------- |
