It was predicted to land just off the West Coast of Chile/Argentina, so pretty accurate really..

I guess we'll be ok fishing at night what with the fish now glowing and all.

I don't remember ever seeing this error before on a link

What happened?
The owner of this website (www.aerospace.org) does not allow hotlinking to that resource

but that's what your second link does for me.

Anyway here's the good ole Beeb on the topic

www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-43614408

It was always an odds-on bet that it would land in water, what with "About 71 percent of the Earth's surface [being] water-covered" (water.usgs.gov/edu/earthhowmuch.html ) but nevertheless it's best that it did (or at last appears to have done).

Yeah seen it before, one of the photo repository websites did it.

It was a Chinese attempt to overcome the Steel and Alluminium import ban into the states, they missed tho.


It it me or does Tiangtong sound like a brand of cheap tyre?
