23 Metric Tons Chinese Rocket Debris To Reach Earth Shortly

The rocket body of the Chinese Long March 5B will hit the earth soon. The exact location is not yet known.

Chinese Call It ‘Shameless Hype’

The last and final module was launched on October 31. The 23-metric-ton rocket stage will deliver the Mengtian Laboratory Cabin module to the Tiangong Space Center. The rocket debris will enter the Earth’s atmosphere on November 5 at 11:51 p.m. EDT give or take 14 hours.

According to the researchers at the Aerospace Corporation’s Center for Orbital and Reentry Debris Studies.

The exact location is not known but its possible field includes the US. Central and South America.Africa.India.Australia and Southeast Asia according to the US Aerospace Corporation.

This is the fourth time in two years that China has just disposed of its rocket debris in an uncontrolled manner. The previous crash landings saw metallic objects rain down upon villages in the Ivory Coast, some had fallen in the Indian Ocean near Maldives, and rocket chunks fell dangerously close to villages in Borneo.

China is oblivious to the kind of effect this is having on the rest of the world. China feels there is no potential damage and it is shameless hype. Nearly 88% of the planet’s population is at risk, that is nearly 7 billion people said Ted Muelhaupt a consultant at the Aerospace’s Chief Engineer’s Office.

The T-shaped Tiangong Space Station will remain in low earth orbit for at least 10 years. Rotating crews of 3 astronauts will perform experiments and tests of new technologies such as the ultracold atomic clock.

As the frequency of Chinese reentries has increased people are concerned now and want some kind of international draft to be drawn up in which such incidents will be monitored and accounted for. Just Wish and pray that there are no casualties owing to this.
