Satellite hurtling towards Earth after nearly 30 years in orbit
A European observation satellite is hurtling towards Earth, and is expected to make landfall on Wednesday, after nearly 30 years in space.
The ERS-2 satellite will break up into pieces during re-entry, the majority of which will burn up, the European Space Agency (ESA) said.
Esa is still monitoring its landfall, which is predicted to occur
