Now targeting, perhaps, the USA. About one ton of debris, if I remember rightly, expected to make it to Earth.

Its kind of warm out so I might stand outside with my baseball mitt tonight and see if I can catch myself something.

If it hits a building how long do you think it will take Alex Jones to accuse the U.S. government of doing it on purpose.

It was nice of them to narrow it down a little. You know, like giving people a specific idea of where the satellite could land.

Not like the 'Entire Western Hemisphere,' is too big.

I hear Dylan Avery has already strung together a theory that this Satallite took pictures of the cruise missiles that hit the Pentagon on Sept 11, 2001, and it was preparing to return to earth to testify in front of a joint Congress/Senate hearing, and that the Lizard men couldn't allow it to happen so they rammed it so that it would violently de-orbit and crash into Al Gore's house, destroying all of the evidence that Al Gore had collected that proved that Global Warming was caused by a Beer and Bong party at George W's house.

The movie will be called "Loose Pants" it will have approximately 36 versions created and run 5 hours in length.

Jeez, thank goodness it was launched on Sept 12, 1991 and not Sept 11...we wouldn't hear the end of that otherwise from internet nutbars.

NASA warns not to touch any of the pieces of satellite you might find as they may have sharp edges.

Are you sure you believe this science? I mean you don't believe in evolution or the big bang, surely that means we can't claim to understand where a satellite will land.

Actually since you brought it up I was quite amused at how many times the scientists changed dates on when this thing is to come down. It reminded me of how many times and how many millions of years aspects of evolution has been revised.
