Elon Musk's company SpaceX sent 49 internet satellites into orbit the other day. Then there was a "geomagnetic solar storm" which is expected to send 40 of them back to earth, burning up in the atmosphere in the process.

Reminds me of the panic in 1979 when Skylab was falling back to earth.

OMG!!!! Will it fall on me while I’m at the supermarket??!!!

I’d have to look it up, but I think it fell in the Indian Ocean.

And a bar in Australia.
Although to be fair, if you land anywhere in Australia you have a better than even chance of hitting a bar.
