Astronomers monitoring the space debris WT1190F, which was expected to fall into the sea or on land near southern coast, today said the debris might have burnt to ashes before reaching the Earth’s atmosphere.

Dr. G. D. K. Mahanama who is a member of the team of scientists assisting the European Space Agency (EPA) told Daily Mirror that no object had been sighted entering the Earth’s atmosphere as anticipated.

WT1190F was expected to enter the Earth’s atmosphere at 10.48 a.m. today but it has turned out to be a non-event after all. (Yohan Perera)
