Rocket is predicted to fall to Earth; location is still unknown

A space rocket, by way of introduction, is a machine that moves by expelling a stream of gas at high speed behind it. In this sense, its objective is to send objects or spaceships and men into space. However, it is not the first time that a rocket (Long March 5B) has fallen back to Earth in an uncontrolled re-entry.

The next bug will happen on November 5th and the rocket will fall to Earth, so we brought more information about this event.

Long March 5B rocket is set to crash

After delivering the third and final module to China's fledgling space station, yet another Long March 5B rocket will crash to earth. In this way, weighing approximately 25 tons, the rocket launched earlier this week will return to Earth's soil.

The location is still unknown.

Unfortunately, there is still no way to predict where it will land. However, the last rocket to return to Earth, which was also a Long March 5B, crashed last year in the Indian Ocean. With that, there are still hopes that it will not impact the lives of human beings so much.

Parallel to this, according to The Aerospace Corporation, the possible debris field includes the US, Central and South America, Africa, India, China, Southeast Asia and Australia. In this way, part of the “debris” can reach these areas.

China dismisses concerns

Despite the news frightening residents, China has insisted that uncontrolled re-entries are common practice. With that, she dismissed concerns about potential damage. However, the first stage of a rocket is usually the bulkiest and most powerful part, and is also the least likely to burn completely on re-entry.

That is, the most worrying part of the rocket is likely to reach the ground and cause damage. Furthermore, Long March 5B propulsion engines cannot restart after being stopped. That is, engineers cannot aim rockets so that their booster sections are directed towards the ocean, relying only on luck.
