Wondering what came of the falling satellite? NASA says the 6-ton satellite fell in an ideal spot: 300 miles Northeast of Christmas Island in the Pacific Ocean. There are claims that some pieces fell into Alberta, Canada, but this remains unconfirmed.
The 26 falling pieces of the 1,200lb satellite remnants were not expected to weigh more than 300lbs, individually. The odds of a person being hurt by the falling pieces were 1-in-3,200, as calculated by NASA.
