The Russian spacecraft that was stuck orbiting Earth a few months ago is now apparently falling back to the ground.

Russian space agency chief Vladimir Popovkin said an engine failed to fire on the unmanned Phobos-Grunt probe after it reached Earth’s orbit months ago, leaving the ship helpless.

Now, according to NASA, the probe is on a collision course for the Atlantic ocean hundreds of miles off the coast of Florida. Residents in the surrounding states have been advised to be on watch for any flaming space junk in the next few days. Should any actually impact the land, immediately report it to the local authorities.
