Rocket headed for crash landing on Earth this weekend: ‘Cross your fingers’ | New York Post

Don’t look up — a rocket is heading for Earth.

You heard that right, Chinese space debris is hurtling toward our planet and could touch down as soon as Saturday, experts warn.

According to the Aerospace Corporation — a space research center that tracks debris re-entering our atmosphere — China launched the rocket earlier this week under the mission name Wentian. The 23-ton rocket, the Long March 5B, is set to make an uncontrolled re-entry, although it is unclear where it will land.

While it’s startling news, it isn’t the first time a rocket has uncontrollably re-entered our atmosphere — and it won’t be the last.
