Rumor has it, UARS is down...Just waiting for NASA to confirm. Videos of fireball taken from backyard in Washington on space.com
REAL TIME SATELLITE TRACKING AND PREDICTIONS: UARS
ALL EYES ON THE SKY TONIGHT!!!! As of on Sept. 23, 2011, the orbit of UARS Re-entry (UARS finally hitting Earth), is expected between 11 p.m. Friday and 3 a.m., Saturday morning. During that time period, the satellite will be passing over North America, more specifically, Canada, then, Africa and Australia, as well as vast areas of the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans.
* The risk of getting hit by this satellite is 1 and 3200, very unlikely! Don't be scared.... ;-)

UARS was launched in 1991 by the Space Shuttle Discovery. It is 35 feet long, 15 feet in diameter, weighs 13,000 pounds, and carries 10 instruments. UARS orbits at an altitude of 375 miles with an orbital inclination of 57 degrees. Designed to operate for three years, six of its ten instruments are STILL functioning! UARS measures ozone and chemical compounds found in the ozone layer which affect ozone chemistry and processes. UARS also measures winds and temperatures in the stratosphere as well as the energy input from the Sun. Together, they help answer the question, what is the role of the upper atmosphere in climate and climate variability?

I am curious to know if the satellite landed and when it landed. If you find out this weekend please let me know.

Hey all! Thanks for your AWESOME comments!!!!! Jarrett, Richie, Santino, Julian, and others who forgot their name ;-) you're all awesome too. I will try my best to keep you (especially Julian), up to date this weekend. Sorry today was hectic, hopefully all students will be more responsible next week, so we can actually use those microscopes.
:-) By the way, great newsletter AGAIN. Thanks to: Santino, Merry, Kristen, Tanner, Fernando and Julian!!!
Thank you for keeping up to date.

So there're are rumors that the UARS crashed here in the U.S.
From,Julian
On my book (Heroes of 911) the firefighters were in one of the twin towers when it fell over but they were on floor five which didn't fall over but they were trapped for a while. Thankfully they made it out alive.
From,Julian
The 9/11 was really serious because Ghadafi and the other guy almost killed my Aunt Amy Rose!
