Are you ready for a 5.4 ton satellite to fall out of the sky? A Nasa Satellite "UARS" is expected to hit earth on Friday. The satellite was launched in 1991. Its mission was completed in 2005 and now it's time for it to depart space. The UARS is the size of a bus and most of it will burn up, but 26 components will hit earth. Statistically the chance of anyone getting hit by the debris is 1 out of 3,200 out of 7 billion people that inhabit earth.

U.S. hikers were suppose to be released today from Iran, but was denied. Iran's judiciary denied President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's deal of a $1 million to release Shane Bauer and Josh Fattal. They were convicted of spying when they crossed the border into Iran when they were hiking. Sarah Shourd was also with them when they were arrested and she was freed last year. A private plane was sent to retrieve the two men. The Obama administration has demanded more information, but no info has been confirmed.
