Next orbit or two maybe.
Or more likely the one we haven't seen.

and yet more of the sky is falling
a US spy satellite (about the size of a bus and travelling at 29,000 mph and costin 4 billion-trillion dollars) is losing orbit. do we know when it'll hit? late feb, early march. do we know where it'll hit? not yet. of course since roughly 3/4 of our great blue marble is water, there's a 1 in 4 chance it'll hit land. do we know if it's got nuclear power or other hazardous materials? sorry, that's classified. could hostile forces get sensitive info? maybe. why haven't we heard much about it? well, there was a bit of a report but then a lame duck SOTU address came upon the scene and guiliani, et al dropped out of the race so there were other, more important things to talk about. 
but have no fear! "appropriate government sources are monitoring the situation" so sayeth the national security counsel. ohhhhmmm.
phew. for a second there, i was worried. 
more indepth info than my rather dramatic recap can be found here http://www.globalsecurity.org/space/systems/e-305.htm |

I saw this new story or at least the head line I think on Yahoo. It siad something like satellite going to fall out of the sky it might hit earth. When I saw it I had to laugh and wonder what in the world else it would hit.

In the late 70s Skylab gave us a similar Chicken Little moment...I recall that it splashed down harmlessly in the Pacific after giving Oz one hell of a light show...
Apparently after a half-century of cavemen dressed as rocket scientists throwing rocks at the moon, they still forget the first rule..."Whatever goes up, must come down"...

I think it is our duty as Pixies to try and save the Earth. C'mon everybody, let's each order an Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator!
