Thanks for the warning, Joe!

Love this bit:
"This has got a very low likelihood that anybody will be impacted by it," said Mike Suffredini, NASA's space station program manager, in an interview. "But still, it is a large object and pieces will enter and we just need to be cautious."
We just need to be cautious? Just what sort of cautionary action does he recommend I take to avoid a refrigerator-sized tank from landing on my head?

Honestly! - as if I haven't got enough to worry about already :roll:

Ian :lol:

Hopefully it'll be a nice light show, and nothing more.

I'll guess it lands in the Bermuda Triangle....:lol: ....even though I'll never be able to prove it.

Useful tip, as always, Skippy!

And if I do happen to see a flaming fridge hurtling towards me from above ... do I jump left ... or right?
