CHINA'S SPACE STATION TIANGONG-1 LAUNCHED IN SEPTEMBER 2011 TO FALL BACK TO EARTH LATE NEXT YEAR 2017 - THE OUT OF CONTROL TIANGONG-1 IS SUSPECTED TO HIT ANYWHERE ON EARTH ONCE IT DECAYS ITS LOW ORBIT

China’s first space station will meet a fiery end next year when the 8.5-tonne module comes crashing down to Earth, amid concerns authorities have lost control of the craft.
The Tiangong-1 space station was launched in September 2011 and currently orbits Earth at an altitude of 230 miles (370km).
But in July, amateur astronomers suggested China had “lost control” of the satellite, after Chinese media reported the country’s space agency had struggled to get in contact with it.
Officials have now confirmed that after four and a half years in orbit, Tiangong-1 (meaning Heavenly Palace) is expected to plummet to Earth in late 2017.
Speaking at a satellite launch for the space station’s successor in the Gobi Desert in northern China, officials from China’s manned space programme said the craft had ended its service in March this year having “comprehensively fulfilled its historical mission”.
