Long March 5 B Rocket Wreckage will return to the atmosphere tomorrow

(Washington / Beijing Comprehensive News) The US Pentagon predicts that the wreckage of the Chinese Rockets that is falling will fly out of the ground and return to the earth's atmosphere tomorrow, but U.S. officials can not predict the fragmentation point.

According to Bloomberg, a Pentagon spokesman Kobe said the day before yesterday that US Secretary of Defense Austin is regularly listening to reports on the trajectory of the Long March 5 Rockets.The rocket successfully sent China's first space station core cabin- "Tianhe" to the track last month.

For the damage that the rocket wreckage may cause the damage to enter the earth's atmosphere, Kobe said that the American Space Army Command is monitoring it, but because it is still too far away, "it cannot be speculated."The Space Control Squadron has updated the location information of the Rockets every day on related websites since this week.

The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Wang Wenbin was asked at a routine press conference yesterday and did not disclose the specific situation.

He said that China has always been committed to peaceful use of external air and advocates international cooperation.

It is difficult to predict the event

Since last weekend, the height of the Long March 5 B Rocket has dropped by nearly 80 kilometers.According to space news reports, an observer of the amateur day found that the rocket's fall was not controlled, and the speed of speed made it difficult for the Rockets to fall.

Macrodor, a celestial physics scientist at the Celestial Physics Center of Harvard University, predicts that the most likely result is that the rocket will fall into the sea because the ocean covers the area of about 71 % of the earth.

But he reminded that some fragments of the Rockets may be equivalent to "small plane crashed and wreckage in the range of 100 miles (about 161 kilometers)" during the falling process of the rocket.

The Chinese official media has criticized the above report the day before yesterday that the above reports were "clichés" and quoted Chinese aerospace experts that the rocket wreckage was very likely to cause harm to the ground.
