JUST SAW UARS 9:52 CST OVER EASTERN NEW MEXICO

It was rather like a regular satellite, just a small reddish dot moving rapidly through the sky to the northeast. I don't think it's ready to crash yet, it might go around again. The next time it enters the US will be around northern California / southern Oregon and go northeast from there. That'll be around 11:16 pm CST, 9:16 pm PST.

There was definitely no fireball with this thing yet, so I'm guessing it has at least one more trip 'round the globe before it burns up? Maybe two trips?

Yup, it'll be whizzing by Antarctica's northern coast in a few minutes.

Sure it wasn't a meteor or something along those lines?

Just a thought is this a satellite? I mean with all that is going on lately such as Denver drills, Nasa warning, Elenin alignment, and everything else. The photo's I saw of this thing doesn't look like a satellite. Well whatever it is I wish it would crash or better yet go away cause the damn stress is gonna kill me. Hope everything turns out for the best. .......Peace To ALL

Very sure that it wasn't a meteor. I sky watch every night because most nights out here are clear and you can see everything in brilliant detail. We see lots of meteors. This was a boring satellite pass-over, in the position UARS was supposed to be in, at the exact time it was supposed to be there. I'll be watching for it again as it comes around, more to the north this time, in about an hour.

That pre-historic cabaret tune in the background of the video is bizarre to say the least.

Double post.

Ah, I see. Hahaha, I'm actually hoping a large chunk of it falls on my house so I can seek reimbursement for property damage and "emotional" distress!

I don't want it to fall on my house (or anybody else's!), but I did look forward to seeing a fireball streaking through the sky.

Oddly enough, earlier in the evening there were several "weather balloons" floating northeast by our house. They were freaky-looking and lit up by the setting sun. At first I thought, "What the hell....!" because there were several in a line a few miles apart, but as the sun set they weren't lit up anymore and they disappeared to the north east into the night.

A call to our friendly local sheriff confirmed that these were a series of "weather" balloons set loose from (we think) around Alamagordo, NM. My husband and I suspect that they are putting a bunch of balloons with cameras up there to catch the action if the satellite crashes in the US.
