ArabiaWeather - An amateur astronomer in Italy spotted, through a virtual telescope, the core of the Chinese Long March 5B missile, which is currently in unstable orbit around the Earth, according to experts, the missile body weighing more than 20 tons is large enough So that it is likely that it will not be completely burned upon entering the earth's atmosphere and some parts will reach the surface of the earth.

 

The missile falls to the ground

The possibilities of the missile fall include that the missile object is likely to fall over the waters that make up 70% of the surface of the earth, but the possibility remains that the missile debris will fall over a populated area, and the US Space Command in the Pentagon stated that it is tracking and tracking the location of the Chinese Long March missile 5B is in space, but it can only determine its exact entry point into Earth's atmosphere within hours of that, which is expected to happen on May 8th.

Other space agencies (in India, the United States, Russia, and Japan) usually maintain enough fuel to allow the engine to be used to re-orient the missile when it falls, so that it can safely land in the ocean, according to guidelines provided by the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA).
