In an advisory, PhilSA said that rocket debris was projected to have fallen within the identified drop zones located around 78 nautical miles from Vigan in Ilocos Sur as well as 194 nautical miles and 332 nautical miles from Panay Island in Catanduanes.
MANILA, Philippines — Possible remnants from the launch of a Chinese rocket may have fallen into the waters off Ilocos Sur and Catanduanes, the Philippine Space Agency said on Wednesday.
“While not projected to fall on land features or inhabited areas, falling debris poses danger and potential risk to ships, aircraft, fishing boats, and other vessels that will pass through the drop zone,” PhilSA said. “Additionally, the possibility of an uncontrolled re-entry to the atmosphere of the rocket’s upper stages returning from outer space cannot be ruled out at this time,” PhilSA said.
