Time when space debris would fall delayed till 6.30 in the evening

1.15 pm
Though the space debris was calculated to fall on the South Seas in Sri Lanka this morning around
11.30 as analysed from various locations in Sri Lanka, there had been no such impact made at that time and a short while before, the Arthur C. Clarke Centre has made an announcement saying hat it would fall at 6.30 this evening. 

This space debris which has been named WT 1190 F has come into destruction in space according to observations made by some scientists but it has not been confirmed. Earlier there was a rumour that it would fall on land-space in Sri Lanka. However later it was reported that it would make no impact with the surface of the earth and instead would fall into the sea in the South of Sri  Lanka. Therefore many people were anxiously waiting to observe carefully this space debris throughout the last few days. What Mr. Jonathan Macdowell who is an astronaut had said across his Twitter Account was that  according to calculation of space debris WT 1190 F, there would be no impact made on earth and that he believes that it would be destroyed somewhere in space close to the earth. 

Several scientists had remarked earlier their ideas that the space debris would on entering the atmosphere of the earth has a probability of being subjected to severe heat and would flare up. When being destroyed in that manner it was said that what would come down to earth will be small particles which would escape the fire at the moment of destruction; but so far nothing of that nature has been observed. The government has issued a note of caution to fishermen and people in that area covering that zone where the space debris is expected to fall in the South, naming it as a risky zone.
