Object CZ‐5B has an estimated mass ranging between 17 and 23 tons, which makes it one of the largest pieces of debris re‐entering the atmosphere in recent years.

The EU SST experts have estimated that the debris generated by the aforementioned object will likely re‐enter Earth’s atmosphere in an uncontrolled manner on 04 November 2022.

As this is an uncontrolled re‐entry, it is difficult at this point in time to exactly predict the trajectory of the debris and where the parts will fall. A detailed prediction could be available only a few hours before the impact.

The current EU SST forecast for impact is within the following time window:

Window Start (UTC): 04.11.2022 08:03:02.433000Z UTC

Window End (UTC): 04.11.2022 18:37:02.433000Z UTC
