DUCK! - a bit of space debris for your enjoyment

Back in July of 2007, the International Space Station got rid of an ammonia reservoir that was no longer needed. They tossed the refrigerator-sized device over the side by hand. The 1,400 pound device is scheduled to slam into the Earths surface sometime soon. When? Early this Monday morning (3:46 UTC � 15 hours) Where? ???
