"The exact location is still unknown."

I don't buy this BS.

NASA knows precisely the area and the time the satellite splashed down.

Actually, that would be impossible, since it broke up into many pieces as it came down, with some parts falling at different rates than others, hitting the earth at different times, and leaving a large debris field. But I think I know what you mean :)

NASA’s decommissioned Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite fell back to Earth between 11:23 p.m. EDT Friday, Sept. 23 and 1:09 a.m. EDT Sept. 24. The Joint Space Operations Center at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California said the satellite penetrated the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean. The precise re-entry time and location are not yet known with certainty.

So, I guess it landed in the water
