America loves a winner!



Aim for Neyland Stadium. It's a fair size target.

We got PN's house from the Google earth pic he posted last week, it should be enough of a target.

Any word on a revised or updated time and target? Last I heard, Today's the day, maybe this afternoon, but nobody will predict where. And it seems there will only be a few minutes warning, from atmo to crash.

NewOld: " Yeah, I got my tinfoil hat on. I'm gonna go out for a walk this afternoon."

I read an article yesterday that now NASA requires satellites to be designed and constructed with re-entry in mind. Also, they have to reserve enough maneuvering fuel to either guide it to an ocean or loft it into a higher orbit.

Unfortunately, none of that is true in this case. The only one driving this thing is Issac Newton. Or as we pilots call it, it'll be a dead stick landing.
