James Fox 22 Posted May 4, 2021 Just read on internet news and not confirmed in any way yet, that new China Space Station has failed and is coming back around the 10th of May. New Zealand is in the landing zone. I will need more than just a hard hat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Nightshade/PR 7,928 Posted May 4, 2021 You mean debris from the rocket used to launch a core module into orbit. The station is not falling. https://www.space.com/china-space-station-rocket-launch-debris-falling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Fox 22 Posted May 4, 2021 (edited) Our news got it wrong again. Still might need that hard hat though. Edited May 4, 2021 by James Fox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James Fox 22 Posted May 9, 2021 (edited) Well I can hang up my Hard Hat, it land out in the Indian Ocean, also can fill in the Bomb Shelter too. Edited May 9, 2021 by James Fox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,846 Posted May 10, 2021 I wouldn't fill in the shelter just as yet ... there's still plenty of comets and asteroids out there, looking for a place to land... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Erik 1,812 Posted May 15, 2021 I'm horrible for saying "shrimp fried rice" with an oriental accent in my head while reading that. I suppose it's left over from last night where the waitress asked me if I wanted supe'r salad and I said, "no thank you, I don't want to fill up on vegetables." She looked very confused as she turned to walk away. I possibly was heckled for that interaction the rest of the night. Less talking more rice wine, please. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
