A similar occurrence is anticipated over the weekend, one day after the remains of a Chinese freight spaceship burnt up in the atmosphere. The remnants of the Long March rocket, which delivered a new science module to China’s space station that is still under construction, will streak through the atmosphere, and analysts are unsure of its exact location as of this writing.
Concerns have been voiced by experts regarding the rocket booster’s uncontrolled descent that propelled the Wentian module onto the Tiangong space station, and China’s historical performance in handling rockets heading towards Earth has not been stellar.

The rocket’s 100-foot-long, 22-ton main-core stage has reached low orbit after its mission on Sunday and is anticipated to fall down toward Earth after atmospheric friction pulls it down. The re-entry could occur over the weekend, according to experts. An astronomer with the Center for Astrophysics named Jonathan McDowell projected that the re-entry might take place on Saturday. He omitted to mention the precise location of the rocket stage’s reentry, though.
China’s Core Stage Will Likely Crash To Earth This Weekend
China launched a test crew capsule on a Long March 5B rocket on May 5, 2020. The rocket’s core stage eventually fell over a settlement in the Ivory Coast, or Côte d’Ivoire, a few days later, on May 11. A brief while earlier, it had straight overflew New York City before making an unplanned return.
We’re back to where we were earlier. According to a tweet from the El Segundo, California-based nonprofit Aerospace Corporation, the reentry of China’s Long March 5B core stage will take place on July 30 at 23:21 UTC, or 16 hours later. It states that it is still too early to identify a “significant debris imprint.”
Our latest prediction for #CZ5B rocket body reentry is:🚀30 Jul 2022 23:21 UTC ± 16 hours
Reentry will be along one of the ground tracks shown here. It is still too early to determine a meaningful debris footprint. Follow this page for updates: https://t.co/SxrMtcrMrs pic.twitter.com/wi2wykRain

He said, “other than pressure China to accept space regulations,” the international community might do to address the issue. For the protection of people and property on Earth, the United States hasn’t let anything heavier than 10 tonnes make an uncontrolled re-entry into the Earth’s atmosphere since 1990.
China Dismisses Reentry Concerns
China has disregarded worries about the re-entry of its rocket in a typical manner. “The U.S. is running out of means to block China’s development in the aerospace sector, so slander and defamation became the only things left for it,” China’s state-run Global Times reported. The reportage of its unchecked reentries is primarily seen by the nation’s officials as a smear effort against the nation.
But until China’s reentries are under control, criticism of them will probably persist. China plans to launch its final space station module into orbit in October of this year, which means we will probably experience a repeat of the current situation soon after.
