Debris from a Chinese rocket is set to crash to Earth some time over the next few days, with the potential for wreckage to land across a wide swathe of the globe.
Part of a Long March 5B rocket China launched on July 24 will make an uncontrolled reentry around July 31, according to the Aerospace Corp., a nonprofit based in El Segundo, California, that receives U.S. funding.
The possible debris field includes much of the U.S., as well as Africa, Australia, Brazil, India and Southeast Asia, according to Aerospace’s predictions.
