So its still officially a UFO,

No, it is the Tiangong-1 space station built and launched by the People's Republic of China. That means it is "Identified" and always has been.

It is what will be released when crashed what folk should be worried about.

Last I heard sometime Sunday and by Friday night they should know a lot more.

If it lands in my backyard I'm keeping it btw.

If a piece falls near me, first thing i do is screenshot it, post it here, then sell it on a private auction for thousands of dollars. Do you realize how much space junk costs?

I've been watching ny2o and the track came over Atlanta just a short while ago. it's moving fast.

EU-NATO propaganda machine allegations against Chinese space station, constantly claiming that Chinese satellites pose a re-entry danger are pure propaganda built on envy due to the total EU inability to develop a serious space program for more than 50 years. EU : A continent that can't aim to the stars!

I believe that is perfectly legal and there is the precedent case of Finders Keepers vs. Losers Weepers you can cite.

They used the famous "called dibs" defense.

What is the best website for tracking this satellite as it begins to enter the atmosphere this weekend?

Here's one option: heavens-above.com...

It's showing where it is right now over the globe, and stating apogee and perigee altitude (dipping down to 180 km today March 30th).

It is 6 miles lower as it approaches Hawaii than it was 24 hours ago...

watching it here www.n2yo.com...

im Starting to see the news reports on TV now .... Anyone have a good guess yet as to where it when ?

Our governor here in Michigan recently activated the states Emergency Operation Center to monitor the falling debris. Most likely a very low probability of hitting S.E. Michigan in my extremely limited opinion but maybe they know something we dont. Or, maybe all the states in our union are doing the same thing, havent really taken a deeper look yet. Someone is gonna get one heckuva light show!!!

I call propaganda! fake!
to be spinning that fast
some one would have to have done it deliberately.
China would have not done that.

oh! maybe I should not have said that!
IF it keeps going it could hit me! UK!
I'm keeping it if I live!

The video was speeded up. The station rotates once in about 2.5 minutes.

It's still too high today (perigee of 174 km), so my guess it will probably reenter on April 2nd.

This map shows where it can fall (within the green area):

I think that when it crosses certain threshold they punch full throttle into our atmosphere to burn up
