What?
Another one?
Yeah, I know some of you are going to leap at a conspiracy theory and ask why all these satellites are are all of a sudden coming down *now*.
Actually, the truth is more boring - that satellites are coming down all the time but normally the media doesnt get excited about them. See, you wouldnt have ever heard about this one unless I mentioned it here.
Note - 8 satellites came down last month, according to this page.


Cosmos 2176 was a Russian missile early warning satellite launched from the Plesetsk cosmodrome aboard a Molniya rocket. It was part of the Oko constellation of satellites and covered the plane 6 - 119 degree longitude of ascending node.
