He mentioned that there are two possibilities for it to fall, the first on the ground completely, or the possibility that it will break apart in contact with the atmosphere and disperse.

This missile is the largest and most powerful Chinese missile, and according to the authorities responsible for it, it is currently orbiting the Earth once every 90 minutes in low Earth orbit, and some ground radars have detected that it wobbles uncontrollably.

China launched the missile last Thursday carrying the "Tianhe" spacecraft, which is the basic unit of the new Chinese space station "CSS" (CSS).

It is estimated that the missile will fall and crash at an unspecified point, and most likely it will be on May 10 in the area between New Zealand and the US state of New York, without being able to determine its exact point of fall.

Experts fear the missile will land in a populated area.
