Old satellites and rocket debris fall from orbit all the time.

Why is this spy satellite getting so much attention? It's the
media latching on to a few key words and blowing it out of
proportion - to their ignorance.

Did you note how the original article is mostly filler about
Skylab and other vaguely related issues?

This is like the story about the astronaut "stuck" on the ISS.
He missed a few rides but he wasn't trapped in space. The
media in their continued ignorance of space and science made
a non-story a story. Same with this spy satellite. It's another
left-wing anti-space/technology/military agenda if you ask me.

This is what happens when colleges continue to divide the
humanities and sciences among the student body. You get
two groups that continue to be ignorant of the virtues of
the other. When will this ever end?
