SUMMARY:The Sky is Falling
DESCRIPTION:\r\nChina's Tiangong-2 space lab will fall to Earth in Jul
 y 2019\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nChina's second space lab will return to Earth in
  July 2019 in a controlled, but destructive \"Fall from Grace\"\r\n\r\
 n\r\nThis comes shortly after the country's first space lab, named Ti
 angong-1, made international news when it infamously plummeted out of 
 orbit in an uncontrolled descent. It fell into the South Pacific Ocean
  in April, mostly burning up in the atmosphere before it reached the o
 cean.\r\nThe second space lab, Tiangong-2, which has been in orbit for
  two years, was launched in 2016. According to state media, it perform
 ed 14 projects and carried a 600 kg load.\r\n\"Tiangong-2 has fulfille
 d its mission during the two-year time, and all the loads are now in g
 ood condition,\" said Lin Xiqiang, deputy director of the China Manned
  Space Engineering Office, according to state media.\r\n\"It will be i
 n orbit until July 2019, and then will be controlled to deorbit.\"\r\n
 In 2016, two astronauts spent a month inside Tiangong-2 as part of Chi
 na's longest-ever crewed space mission. According to state media, they
  conducted experiments related to medicine, physics and biology.\r\nIt
  will have lasted barely half the time that its predecessor spent in o
 rbit. Tiangong-1 was launched in September 2011 and spent at least fiv
 e years in operation before it \"ceased functioning\" in March 2016, a
 ccording to the Chinese space agency officials. It was not revealed wh
 y it had suddenly stopped working.\r\nThe Tiangong program (Tiangong m
 eans \"Heavenly Palace\" in English) is intended as the initial steps 
 towards China's ultimate space goal: launching a permanent space stati
 on around 2022.\r\nIn August 2018, Beijing unveiled the rover it was p
 lanning to send to explore the \"dark side\" of the moon later in 2018
 , while the launch of the country's first Mars probe is planned for 20
 20.\r\n\r\n\n\nFor more information visit https://agilephilly.ning.com
