what I don't get is how they shoot it 'down' .. ?
if the satellite is hit by a missile from here, why is it not pushed out further into space?
yet they say it, or the pieces, would come down a couple days later..
I'm sure there'e an Occams razor-like splanation, but I can't figure it out ...
thanks in advance to the 'splainers..
(..as I go to hit the post button i think maybe it has to do with the angle of trajectory; if it's a low enough angle it might slow the satellite down enough to cause it to fall...? )
