Chinese lab crash

it was predicted that China's Tiangong-1 space lab was to fall from the sky sometime soon and behold it did. as sit burned up in the earth's atmosphere among approach, it broke off into pieces and fell into the pacific ocean. it is often that space junk falls from space but not as often as a satellite. it was originally launched in 2011 as china's first attempt at an orbiting space lab. its demise has long been anticipated.

its unfortunate to hear that somethings such as this will be ending. however this brings more opportunity for china to have another shot at the whole space base thing. though it may be a challenge with all the debris in our atmosphere and such, but cant wait to see what the future holds.
