The end is near, as reported many months ago. Now it's even nearer. Experts guestimate between March 24 and April 19, probably first week of April. No not on the 1st. Details to follow. Better start with your 'list of things to do before I die"  "Tiangong-1: China's Out-of-Control Space Station Will Crash Into Earth in Just Weeks, Likely to Hit Northern U.S. States ... Although experts have not yet determined exactly where the out-of-control module will land, an Aerospace report detailed that it will likely re-enter somewhere in the northern U.S. states, parts of South America, northern China, the Middle east, central Italy, northern Spain, New Zealand, the south of Africa or Tasmania in Australia." www.yahoo.com/news/tiangong-1-china-apos-control-123925937.html |

Does this lead us to believe that their is a ''chink'' in the great atmospheric wall that surrounds and helps protect our planet ?   |

They told us our insurance was void when the yanks skylab hit.....how about now. I will sue them if it hits me....
With Skylab the yanks had just enough fuel to stop it hitting the US and send it to Australia...great friends.

An update, the ESA talks about midSat to mid-Sun timeframe. "China says Earth-bound spacelab to offer 'splendid' show BEIJING - An out-of-control space laboratory that will plunge back to Earth in the coming days is unlikely to cause any damage, Chinese authorities say, but will offer instead a "splendid" show akin to a meteor shower. China's space agency said on Thursday that the nearly eight-tonne Tiangong-1 will re-enter the atmosphere some time between Saturday and Monday. The European Space Agency has a smaller window between midday Saturday and early Sunday afternoon GMT time." www.bangkokpost.com/news/world/1437787/china-says-earth-bound-spacelab-to-offer-splendid-show#cxrecs_s |

Dear god. I know I haven't been the best christian but can you please make this land on our "Asset management team"? Please? Is it 'what have they done to deserve that' or more like 'what didn't they do to deserve that'? I'm more for "I will feel truly humbled if you select me, my Lord", or should that be 'rubbled?  |

Now is 16:49 THA = 09:46 UTC
