Re:Track Europe's falling, 2,000-pound satellite in real-time by omegant on Saturday November 09, 2013 @02:53PM (#6702881)
It hasn't an aerodinamic shape that behaves in a predictable way. Also it can and will break in different pieces, that will fall in different places due to their different weight and shape. Look at the Columbia debris pattern. It was scattered through half the USA. I don't think that the wind could do more than a docen miles of difference in the impact point. It will spend too little time at the lower atmosphere.
