That fact has repeatedly sparked controversy and has seen criticism from space policy experts who say it poses an unnecessary risk.
The vehicle was designed without the necessary equipment to steer itself to a safe landing. This situation is the fourth uncontrolled reentry for a Long March 5B rocket since China’s space agency started flying it two years ago. “It is critical that all spacefaring nations are responsible and transparent in their space activities and follow established best practices, especially, for the uncontrolled reentry of a large rocket body debris – debris that could very well result in major damage or loss of life.” They did not share specific trajectory information which is needed to predict landing zones and reduce risk,” said NASA Administrator Bill Nelson in a statement released Friday morning, as reported by CNN. “Once again, the People’s Republic of China is taking unnecessary risks with the uncontrolled rocket stage reentry of their Long March 5B rocket stage. According to the US Space Command, the rocket reentered the atmosphere over the south-central Pacific Ocean just after 6 AM ET.
