Back to Earth...

Hey guys,

Dunno if anyone has posted this on here yet, but the explorational Japanese spacecraft " Hayabusa" will be re-entering the atmosphere this weekend. It is scheduled to to rip through the skies around the Woomera Prohibited Area, S.A, at 12.2 km per second at 2330hrs this sunday night. I wonder if Suzuki's version could be tuned to go that fastThere will be 2 objects that will be burning up, one the size of a fridge, the other about the size of a football, containing samples of an asteroid that it landed on a few years back, for more information, check out wikipedia.

The best vantage point will be from Glendambo, which is on the way to Coober Pedy..

Hopefully it will be clear night, cos ill be up with my eyes to the skies..

Stupid me, just realised someone already had posted info about it, sorry guys

Glendambo. Big sign out the front. population 370,000 sheep and 6 people (or something like that)

A shame the 'Hayabusa' hasn't really been in the mass media, sounds interesting.
