Good Morning,

You may want to keep an eye on the sky in the coming weeks.

A Chinese space lab that is about the size of a city bus is set to fall from the sky, but no one really knows where it will land, according to an NPR report. 

The 19,000-pound vessel has been in orbit since 2011 and will make its descent back to earth within the last few days of March or beginning of April. 

Don’t get too worried, though. Bill Ailor of the Aerospace Corporation's Center for Orbital and Reentry Debris Studies says it will likely land in the ocean, because most of our planet is covered in it.
