According to the NASA, "joining the satellite re-entry expected September 23, plus or minus one day." Thus, the American experts corrected the previous monitoring time personal satellite falling toward their approach, according to ITAR-TASS. With this NASA noted, in fact the rate of displacement of the unit to the Earth "is increased by a sudden burst of solar activity since the beginning of this week." Tracking, scientific work ceased in 2005 year, will realize the experts of the Joint Center Space Operations. It is located on California's Vandenberg Air Force Base and is part of the Strategic Command U.S. armed forces. NASA promises to update the position of the orbit of the nearly 11-foot unit with a mass of 6.5 tons, once weekly, until the moment of entry to the atmosphere there will be 4 days. Then the information about the rate of decay will be updated daily, and later – every hour. Thanks to the computer prediction, NASA knows it became, in fact the earth's surface ready to fall about 26 unburned components single satellite weighing 532 kg. This can happen on any continent other than Antarctica. Presumably, the spread of debris around 804 CML. When the letter of NASA, the possibility of actually falling debris as a consequence the satellite have a good chance to get injured people nisobstvennozhna. According to their calculations, the chances of a draw up 1 to 3200. "The probability of death or damage to property, an unusually low. Since the beginning of Space Age in the late 1950s, there have been no confirmed reports about it, actually someone injured because of falling debris satellites, just as there was no reports of any significant damage to property "- NASA has shown. The probe, prepared for the study of surface layers of the atmosphere, such as chemical components and processes of photochemistry, was launched into orbit by space shuttle Discovery September 15, 1991. Toxic fuel on board there – it was wholly produced in 2005.
