NASA's Swift telescope plunges to Earth after failed robotic rescue

Space Force projects reentry around November 4

The U.S. Space Force forecasts the 1.5-ton Swift spacecraft will reenter on or around Friday, with a reentry zone covering parts of Africa, Australia, India, Southeast Asia, and Central and South America; one estimate puts public risk at 1-in-2,100.
