Falling Satellite heading for Adelaide

Just heard on the radio that the satellite that is heading towards earth may in fact crash in Adelaide within the next 24 hours.
Scientists say that they will be able to give about 8 hours warning before it crashes as to an approx location
The 20-year-old Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite is expected to break into 100 pieces, many of which will burn on re-entry.
But scientists said 26 pieces - some weighing up to 135kg - are expected to survive. The debris could be scattered over an area about 800km long
Now for the waiting game
