This better not come down on the united shits of america or there'll be more war talk going forward. It's likely to just see an ocean drop and that will be it.

When it burns up in the atmosphere it will no longer exist to fall anywhere.  Only a "few small parts" would be likely to remain.

It's not a solid piece of rock like a meteor.  The hull will be breached and fire will consume the ship from the inside and out simultaneously, unlike a meteor which only burns from the outside surface area and therefore can survive a lot longer.

The designated spot is Indian Ocean, north of Madagascar.

Of all the cargo ships that reach ISS like regular buses, this one had to have a failure! It carried a copy of the Victory Banner, that Russia hoped to deliver to ISS, like it did with the Olympic torch last year.

I think the Atmosphere is strong enough to collect all the fallout..I haven't seen any mass hysteria reports on the news our end and we are located in Europe, but will be interested to see what pans out.
