I thought this was really interesting. In a rare display of openness the Chinese have admitted that they have lost control of Tiangong 1, it is falling, and will come to a fiery end in late 2017.
"Even though China may not be able to steer Tiangong 1’s flaming corpse into a specific spot, humans will likely be unharmed. The odds are very low it will fall in an inhabited area: Roughly speaking, half of the world’s population lives on just 10 percent of the land, which translates to only 2.9 percent of Earth’s surface."
That's comforting.
Not wanting to waste time, they promptly launched their 2nd space lab to replace the first. (if at first you don't succeed, throw more shit in space right away, that's my motto.
