It is highly anticipated where the space station Tiangong-1, which China has completely lost control of, will fall into. There is no technology to change the direction of Tiangong, which is supposed to break apart in the atmosphere and which is thought to create less damage at the point it falls. In some cases it is known that the spacecraft is being driven towards the ocean by means of additional repulses, but Tiangong-1 is completely out of control.

It is estimated that between 10% and 40% of the station, which is expected to fall to Earth in March 2018, could fall into the world on fire. Although these figures seem small in the first place, it is best possible that 907 kilograms fall to Earth.

There are some predictions about where the Tiangong-1, which the American Space Surveillance Network is watching, will fall into. Scientists suggest that the station will fall into a gigantic zone between 43 degrees north and 43 degrees south latitude, but according to researchers, the station will likely fall into the ocean or an unmanned area.
