Bus-sized European satellite crashes to Earth over Pacific Ocean

The satellite reentered Earth's atmosphere over open ocean; it's unclear if any debris made its way to the surface.

ERS-2 spotted! 📸🛰️ The ESA satellite is on a tumbling descent that will lead to its atmospheric reentry and break up this week. These images of ERS-2 were captured by @heospace for @spacegovuk using cameras on board other satellites. #ERS2reentry

Hörte gerade auf NDRInfo, dass die ESA die Chance, heute von einem Teil des Satelliten ERS-2 getroffen zu werden, mit 1:10^9 angibt.

Bei einer Weltbevölkerung >8x10^9 sind dann heute wohl ca. 8 Treffer zu erwarten... 😳
