Experts are still unsure of exactly where that will be, although the latest predictions are somewhere in the Pacific Ocean, southwest of Hawaii.
Mark Matney, NASA orbital debris scientist: "Something has changed about the spacecraft, either its orientation and/or its shape, in such a way that the drag rate has dropped slightly, the aerodynamic forces are less. As a result, it has delayed the time of re-entry."
