don't look now, but the sky is falling
a NASA spokesman said,
'see what funding cuts do, we can't keep it up anymore'
he says a falling satellite is slowing its approach to
the upper atmosphere and should plunge back
toward earth early saturday
estimates that the satellite would not be passing
over north america during its re-entry are just lies, he stated
NASA now says there is a probability that debris that
survives re-entry will land in the US
a 6.5-ton, bus-size space satellite is expected
to reach your back yard by morning
the debris field will stretch a whopping 500 miles
there is nowhere you can run
staying in doors won't help,
not if a bus moving at mach 2 lands on your house
the only hope is if you live in a multi-level apartment
and you live on the ground floor and the satellite
lands on the 50th floor, you might survive
chances of getting hit are 1 in 3,200 NASA said
chances of finding this blog are 1 in 70,000,000
so, you are screwed (cuz look at you now...)
the debris is made of stainless steel, titanium and beryllium
and includes batteries, which you can't keep
there are no hazardous chemicals or radio activity
although the pieces might have sharp edges
the space agency said
whew, only sharp edged steel,
NASA said that this is not an exact science
but that they are rocket scientists and
they will be at the north pole - where it's safe
