Listen, you can have space exploration or you can have rule by a cluster of withered geriatrics, but not both. I think america made the right choice

Couldn't they just send some people up to attach a whole bunch of parachutes, maybe a heatshield, and then just use those so instead of crashing it just gently floats down? Hell, if it lands somewhere near people then you could probably just repurpose it as like a big water tower or something

in the 90s my aunt had a weird breakdown and was completely convinced that a satellite was going to come down and kill her from space, evidently she would talk about it all the time to anyone that would listen.

This would be extremely radical and I hope her memorial is a sculpture of a hand giving the middle finger with just "I told you so" under it at the crash site/where they bury her remains and it becomes a public nuisance because it can't be rezoned or something.

I was thinking "Man there's so much stuff this thing could land on that'd be comical, it's probably going to be sorta darkly comical at least" and then I thought "Nah it's probably going to hit a village in Africa or start the drat rainforest on fire or land on a pod of nursing whale calves." Something equally innocent and not even slightly cool. Stupid tumbling giant chinese space rocket, why can't you ever do anything funny just once!!!

Just for some sense of perspective, it'd probably be really bad if big pieces of it fell on your house, but it's not going to destroy a city or something.

Space shuttle Columbia rained several times the mass of debris of this thing over the US.
