A French-Chinese satellite blasted off Saturday on a hunt for the mightiest explosions in the universe, in a notable example of cooperation between a Western power and the Asian giant.

    Unfortunate yes.

    Thank goodness the US doesn’t drop empty stage

    SpaceX has dropped stuff that’s caused fires in state parks

    https://www.engadget.com/spacex-starship-launch-caused-a-fire-in-a-texas-state-park-165630774.html

    Also found an article where orbital debris landed on a trail in North Carolina. This stuff happens unfortunately. Acting like China is the only one who’s had issues is disingenuous.

    Heck, the U.S. let the last space station burn up in an uncontrolled re-entry, and got huge public backlash, which is the only reason we have end of mission plans now.
