NASA Satellite Crashing to Earth, but Where?

A 6.5 ton NASA satellite the size of a bus is expected to fall to Earth late this afternoon, Sept. 23, or early Saturday morning.

NASA says the Upper Atmosphere Reserch Satellite (UARS) will catch fire and break apart, but not all of it will burn up, and about 26 large pieces will make it to land or the ocean, but the exact location and time of re-entry are unknown.
