NASA's Swift space telescope to fall back to Earth

Original: NASA's Swift space telescope predicted to crash back to Earth tomorrow

NASA's Swift space telescope, a gamma-ray burst observatory launched in 2004, is predicted to make an uncontrolled reentry into Earth's atmosphere, with most of the spacecraft expected to burn up on descent. The exact timing and location of any surviving debris reaching the ground remains uncertain, drawing wide attention as space agencies track the falling object.

Why now: People are closely watching a large NASA spacecraft's uncontrolled reentry and where any debris might land.
