UARS satellite fall expected Friday

A 6.5-ton satellite falling out of orbit will hit Earth on September 23, 2011, and 26 pieces of it have a good chance of surviving the heat of re-entry, NASA said. The exact location of its re-entry is impossible to pinpoint because the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite travels thousands of miles in a matter of minutes, Mark Matney of NASA's Orbital Debris team told CNN.
