NASA confirms that a piece of space junk from the ISS hit a house in Florida in 2024. The object is made of the metal alloy Inconcel, weighs 725 grams, is about ten centimeters high and has a diameter of about four centimeters.
A pallet with discarded batteries from the International Space Station ISS could possibly crash in Germany, authorities even sent warning messages via the Nina and Katwarn apps. But the crash over Germany did not occur. According to official information from the US Space Force, the space debris fell into the Gulf of Mexico at 7:29 p.m. (UTC) A few days later, Alejandro Otero published pictures on X of an object that he said fell into his home in Naples (US state of Florida). He wrote: “Break through the roof and go through two floors. Almost hit my son” The topic is only now picking up steam, almost three weeks after the original post. The owner of the damaged house is still unclear what this means for him.
