China's first prototype space station, Tiangong-1, will come crashing back to Earth between March 30 and April 3 in an uncontrolled re-entry, give or take a few days, experts say.

Guess we can look forward to a few more threads like "A request for advice concerning a bizarre car 'accident' and insurance kerfuffle".

Good grief. Will we never learn?
We have been to space for about 5 minutes, yet we have already managed to dump hundreds of tons of crap up there.

I'd rather it stayed up there than make an uncontrolled return to earth.

It should burn up in the atmosphere. The dinosaurs were a little bit unlucky as the rock that hit them was the size of Mount Everest.
