A large part of the 'out-of-control' debris from Long March 5B is expected to hit the earth's surface on May 8.

Heads up! It's homecoming time for 'out-of-control' debris from the Long March 5B, that blasted off on April 29 from Hainan island. As per China's Global Times, a large part of space debris that is currently in an uncontrolled re-entry phase is expected to crash down on Earth this weekend. China has finally informed that the falling space rocket that is plummeting freely on earth and is set to re-enter Earth’s surface this weekend is 'unlikely' to cause any damage.It is still not known where the debris is likely to fall and concerned countries have been alerted and have been asked to take preventive measures. Chinese experts, according to the official media, are saying that the parts of the disintegrated rocket will fall in international waters.The said rocket was used by China to launch part of its space station. Space debris objects must burn up in the atmosphere, but this has not happened. If large free-falling parts re-enter the Earth’s surface, it may cause big damage if they hit inhabited areas.
