No. But good question.

According to Wiki, Tiangong means “Heavenly Palace”.

“although experts agree it will be somewhere between latitudes of 43° north and 43° south”

Yep, that really narrows it down.

Chappaqua NY 41.1595°North.
Yes in bounds.

But places me in the possible impact area.

Not good, except for the possible ebay angle.

Too far south.
And would consume the last of the hydrazine onboard.

Absinthe? Wormwood?

You don’t drink that crap, do you?

Hydrazine may taste better?

But to be safe, just stick with grain alcohol and rain water.

I don’t think the Chinese would even note mere hydrazine.
My bet is in the heavy metal category, very heavy radioactive metal.
