Tracking radars are closely following the gradual fall to Earth of a large Chinese rocket segment.
Long March-5b
The core stage from the Long-March-5b vehicle was used to launch the first module of China’s new space station last month, however, the return of the rocket stage will be uncontrolled and at 18 tonnes will be one of the largest items in a decade to have an undirected dive into the atmosphere.
This could happen over the weekend.
