A Chinese rocket’s debris could be headed to an inhabited part of earth. Find out how space junk could impact our future. RELATED:
A section of a large Chinese rocket is falling back to Earth and is expected to crash sometime Saturday. It could strike an inhabited area, experts warn.
Where it will hit “cannot be pinpointed until within hours of its reentry,” the Pentagon said in a statement this week.
U.S. officials are watching the rocket's trajectory. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin is "aware and he knows the space command is tracking, literally tracking this rocket debris," Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said.

Space junk??
It’s our junk,we put it out there!!
If you chuck your junk over your fence, it becomes your neighbours junk.
@robinhood 46 That sounds painful.
@robinhood 46 Well damnit Tell them to stop it! I swear I live on a particular section of road that for whatever reason compels people to toss their bud light cans. There’s no way it’s the same person. My mower is ok with chewing aluminum but the glass bottles are a bit inappropriate to mow over. I dunno. Space junk would be cool if it landed in my years though
Nah. It’s Uighur Muslim Astronauts.
“Chinese space junk didn’t land on us, we landed on Chinese space junk”
@Joree Anton lol
Wtf are you saying
@SarsCV2 Virophage Epic comment.
@Joree Anton hey it’s communism, what’d you expect?
Chinese kids just pop a squat on the sidewalk and pinch one out. They then grow up to be China’s NASA. They give no effs
Imagine that you’re out fishing in some of the 70% water surface of the planet and boom boom out go the lights . Does a boat destroyed by fallen space debris make a noise if nobody else sees it ?
I know that a Uighur Muslim Girl makes a noise if nobody besides CCP officials sees it or causes it for that matter.
Yeah know how much space junk falls from orbit and burns up in reentry ? Tons !
A-team vibes lol
Lmao
If someone cuts off your arm, and you don’t see it happen, does your arm still get cut off?
We buy their junk, now they’re giving it to us free –
@StudyLoops ….. China is dumping low quality products that are considered trash around the world …you are not aware of it ?
@Joree Anton Hes not even aware of the Uighur Muslims who’ve been missing for a year now.
@StudyLoops China is the reason why we have so much trash you fool, their products are so cheap, they fall apart so where do they go? They throw it out in a wasteland.
according to the Pentagon China already has better weapons and high- technology than us!
@Squid Cena you don’t have to buy it if it’s that bad… But it’s entirely your choice to throw it out instead of recycling. See the hypocrisy of racism?
The dude in this video looks stoned as hell 😂🤣🤘🤘
Well…he is a confessed junkie.
He lookin at me like I’m lookin at him 💀
LMAO
Maybe he’s a space junkie!
Holy sh** how did I not see it before… dude is baked and in the sun
*Who else is watching and reading comments at the same time 😊*
Just last week, I lost $10,500
@Darwin Polat I lost £1200 carelessly trading on a platform then I was referred to Mr Luis Edison, he recovered the loss and made an extra profit of £4600
Like doesn’t everyone do that
@Joseph M. Gracia yea best put real money into a currency that isn’t real. Makes sense if your a dem cause your brain gets switched with an old cantaloupe.
@Kevin Bates You are out dated
Even our death will have a “Made in China” label in it.
@fra setch You are 100% dead wrong, I never like Trump, I am not here to hate anyone or anybody or any country just stating the logic and how this video is, and I never vote for Trump.
@manoman0 You calm down, I am relax, what are you talking about be specific please.
@James Goodman I do not understand what are you trying to say in English. The sentence is incomplete.
Omg the awkward burn
If the space junk hits my junk , I’m finished 🤠
Roger that!

😯😯😯😯kekekekekekeke lol sorry ill go
The “long dong” rocket is going to Penetrate the atmosphere and make a Hard Entry into an unknown location most likely where a “long dong” has never entered before!
@Ricky You have a killer sense of humor!
@Ricky Why? Do you want her to die with a smile on her face?
@join the conversation It will become Pleasure Island.
@Val Frei Maybe NEW TV series like FANTASY ISLAND? Except TATOO (?) will be saying The DONG! The DONG! ???
@join the conversation I’m from st.Thomas Virgin Islands don’t scare me like that
I bet every one of us is anxious that out of all the locations on earth it could land. It would land on your house.
@robotman where you live
More like my head
Omg yes! I have bad anxiety and i think that.
@Tru Forlife I was about to call you out for being racist, but I can’t really argue with that statement.
@KingdaKoasters and SummitSlides any little thing and they are ready to end it all.
Metaphor: China is like Bruce Lee and We(USA) are Chuck Norris, we already know the ending!
How’s the ending ?
It’s gonna be an ugly fight for the both of them.
This will only tell you what they’re told to tell and it’s not going to be the truth, their bosses won’t let th hem.
Oh my god, this is it. I’ve had this recurring fear since I was 13 that I was going to die in my sleep with something falling in on me. Oh man. There is so much I wanted to do in life. Well if this is it this is it. Talk about foreshadowing. I hope I’m wrong.
@Joree Anton if I die? Pfft yeah right, everything will go on without a hitch haha who am I? Not a big deal haha
@Mr Black…. 😳🤡😭😳🤡🤪🙀🙀😇😜
U need a chill 💊
Stay awake all night.
maybe don’t watch the movie Donnie Darko
We have to admire the man kind capacity to pollute even space
Exactly
Can’t help but think of the Rockos modern life episode when the satellite hit his house ha
Imagine sleeping and then this falls on you
“This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do…..( Space Oddity by David Bowie )
I pray that anyone reading this will not or never experience any financial problem or difficulties, May God give us the strength to win at the end amen 🙏
