This guy explains it perfectly — 21 tons and the size of a 10-story building.
VIDEO AT LINK...............
People were laughing at this dude when he posted this video but he’s 100% right.
Do any of you remember the Skylab hysteria of the late 1970’s?
Starscream CIA-Simulation Warlord 🇺🇸🦈🇺🇸 @zerosum24 🚨🚨Just In: Huge rocket looks set for uncontrolled reentry following Chinese space station launch. The Long March 5B’s core stage weighs 21 tons and is the size of a 10 story building. - Space News
Whoops, Mir was 150 tons (it was built a bit at a time), Skylab was 77 tons.
It’s ok, the Chinese have bought enough media and politicians that this really isn’t an issue, (unless it hits you).
Liquid soap has its advantages but bar soap is its natural form. Less chemicals added. Not that it matters to me much anyway...
For some reason, even though I remember everyone talking about it, I don’t think I realized what in the world it was all about.
I’m astonished to find out now. Wow. I really was a blank back then.
Ever read “Debt of Honor” by Tom Clancy? Maybe . . . .
“The largest object to strike Earth in our lifetimes “
Only if you’re 7 years old. The Chelyabinsk in 2013 was estimated at 12,000 tons.
—”If a piece lands in my yard, I’m gonna spray it with Lysol and bleach...............”
I already have some nice bids on eBay listing for ‘”Only used once Long March 5B Chinese rocket”
Pls let me know if it lands in your yard, so I can cancel my listing?
I remember the Skylab hysteria
That would be 12,000 tonnes (metric), long tons or 2200 pounds each.............
Since Earth is 70% covered in water, that’s probably where most of it will wind up, sleeping with the fishes................
Yeah, but you could be wrong.
If we all wish, wish, wish; could we perhaps drop it on the head (i.e., back yard, general area, etc) of someone who really needs a swat from Gawd? Hmmmm, with that last phrase, the Vatican comes to mind. An unpopular political figure or celebrity would be great, but there are so many. But, the enthroned commie, pedo sympathiser, himself? The latest I heard from this .....thing was that we all had to give up individualism and “become a world citizen”. Uhh, bugger off. OK, OH GREAT ROCK IN THE SKY, I HAVE A TARGET FOR YOU!
“Too bad we can’t find a way to steer it to China”
This is the reason China wrestled the missile re-entry vehicle program (MRV) from Clinton in the 90’s using Loral and Hughes. They didn’t want to hit themselves in the mouth.

More like bought with bundled campaign donations from Riady and/or Chung. The Clintons also allowed Loral to fix China's multi-stage explosions. Billy transferred multi-use technology authorization from the State Dept. to the Commerce Dept.
I still believe Ron Brown (Commerce Secretary) was assassinated because it was leaked that he was going to expose the Clintons' nefarious and treasonous donation dealings with China.
China would be years if not decades behind their current tech if not for Bill Clinton.
Given the heat of reentry, it should be fairly clean from a biological perspective. Never hearts to be sure though!
I remember getting to the end of that book and thinking to myself, "Did he really just do that?" Then I re-read the last chapter just for the sheer enjoyment of it.
Is there any chance it hits DC?
