Chinese space station out of control
As early as March 2016, the Chinese space agency CMS lost control of the "Tiangong-1" space station. In September, experts finally expressed the suspicion that the space laboratory was heading uncontrollably towards the earth. That means that parts of this spacecraft could hit Earth. Experts expect that the spacecraft will fall to earth in 2017/2018.

@germansteem thank you fror the information it is sad but we need to hope and pray that it will not hit the earth.
Oh wow! Very interesting post! Let's hope that this isn't gonna happen!
We can only hope the parts land in the ocean or a desert, somewhere safe from hurting people!
Luckily the chance of it impacting on a place with humans is very low. Most of our plant is uninhabited, so I don't think there's a reason to worry about this. Space stations are luckily pretty small.
It is still the small chance remote towns etc may get hit by something, but the size of them are indeed small.
Yeah, it's of course a chance, but I'm just saying that it's so small that there's no need to worry :)
Wow, this is pretty sad! I don't think it poses a big threat to hurting people by the impact considering how small it is, but it must suck to lose your space station!
Woah that's scary. Hoping that no one will get hurt. Is there a chance of regaining control of the space station?
nice article. Thank you for post
It was not there to stay long, just a temporary testing facility until they bring their true station. It's not surprising, it was more or less made to do that soon. Tiangong-1 was made to be deorbited in 2013... probably no fuel left now to do a controlled fall.
