'Out of control' rocket on collision course with Earth - and could hit within days
Chinese rocket is out of control and hurtling towards Earth - and it could impact within days.No one knows exactly where the 21-ton piece of China's Long March 5B rocket will hit, with reports it could land anywhere between the US, Spain, Chile and New Zealand.Spacecraft debris is usually guided to a designated spot in the sea, but the core stage of the rocket began orbiting Earth uncontrolled.And after launching on April 29, it looks set to fall to Earth in the coming days. "I think by current standards it's unacceptable to let it reenter uncontrolled," astronomer Jonathan McDowell told SpaceNews.
