I'm guessing this has a very minimal chance of actually causing damage or landing somewhere populated because it's not on the news every minute attempting to cause mass panic amongst the people for ratings.

OP is pretty inaccurate abou the rocket stage "accidentally" going into an unstable orbit. It very deliberately left itself in a low parking orbit and immediately began tumbling becuase they wanted it that way. They chose not to put any thrusters on the core stage that could stabilize it or choose where to come down. China just doesn't give a gently caress.

Yes.

The plan is to instantly begin a hot war with China the very second a piece of a failed space vehicle hits a continent sized piece of land anywhere by sheer accident, yes.

The B Variant essentially attaches the payload (in this case a Space Station) to the main core/sustainer.



Since there is no second/upper stage, there is also no RCS to make a controlled de-orbit with. So the whole thingy becomes a happy present after separation. You can track its current orbit here: http://stuffin.space/?intldes=2021-035B
