How does the “destruction” of a satellite in orbit, cause it to come down to earth in one piece?
Not big enough to atomize it, but big enough to knock out most of it’s sensors and possibly kick it out of orbit.
We’re not talkin here about a satellite twice as big as your home pc or something.
Big as a bus. Maybe a small bus, but still big.

It’s a little-known fact* that when space debris falls to earth, it gathers mass as it passes through the atmosphere, much like a snowball rolling downhill gathers bulk.
*little-known, because I just made it up.
Whoever they got to take over Rove's weather machine needs to work on his aim.
Hey! Don't ruin a good story with facts and logic.
Hey, stop confusing the story with logic!.
That and how come the logic of it couldn’t have been a meteor because the size of that crater would have caused such a large event it would have showed up on siesmic data. The force to create a given impact crater would be constant whether or not the object landing in it was natural or manmade.
