theres not a lot left of them, it was a pretty big hit. i'd really like to see what the impact looked like, but i'm not sure they'd be so noticeable, certainly not with the human eye. also some people in here need to keep it cool. i don't believe there's any hate talk or rash/serious...

it'll all burn up anyway, but yeah its a bit of a hazard been up there.

can never be sure why the Americans didn't move it. either they simply didn't know or they thought they'd risk it. there's still such a lot of the fengyun debris up there, it's going to be such a pain in the ass.

well yeah.... who's and what type of phone call...

Russians aren't to blame. the pieces are so spread out now that they overlap with other iridium's in the same orbit. and at the moment it looks like a lot of it won't decay until the second half of the year.

it was number 33, or 24946 the big problem here is that there's a few more iridiums in the same orbit trying to dodge a ring of debris. also because its happened above the iss, they're gonna have a shower of debris. abandon ship? -----Post Added----- do you know which program thats run...
