Sometime between Thursday and the middle of next week, the Chinese space station known as Tiangong-1 is expected to fall out of the sky.
Most of the 18,740-pound space lab likely will burn up in the atmosphere, experts said.
But not all of it.
Between 10% and 40% of the station’s mass probably will land somewhere on the planet.
As of now, nobody knows where.
The odds of it hitting anyone are very small but it should put on a spectacular show. Hope for clear skies!
