China's failing falling space station is most likely to crash in one of these countries...

I wonder if we could shoot it down....'Hold my beer and watch this...'  :rotflmao:

We already have a solution for that- does anyone remember the 'Skylab early warning helmet'? It was on SNL and had a plastic spire on top with notches indicating the remaining time the wearer had to leave the immediate area. If memory serves, the numbers were nanoseconds and really, it was pretty funny.

Fortunately Skylab ended up dropping over (into) Australia. Which probably started the Aussies shooting at the thing on the way down, sparking the current draconian gun control in that country. Opps, wrong thread....

I'll give my prediction. It will land somewhere on earth. Sounds about as specific as the expert's prediction!

Yup. All we know is that a boatload of chinese crap is headed our way. And this without eBay or Amazon being involved.  ::)
