6 Ton Satellite Disappears:
I woke up this morning and rushed to the back porch to see if NASA's bus-sized satellite had parked itself in my backyard only to learn later that the thing is now a needle in a haystack. Nobody knows what happened to the space junk.
Speculation places parts of it in Canada, the Pacific Ocean, and maybe Africa. Most space junk, NASA says, ends up in the ocean. That's because more of the earth's surface is covered with water than dirt and rock.
So "the bus" sleeps with the fishes. (See Huffington Post article.)
