Spy satellite

Just imagine if it hit upon the undisclosed location where Cheney hides.....

Or, it comes through your roof and hits you when you are on 'the throne'. What a way to go.....

I suspect there's not much data storage on the bird (just enough to store the pics until the next meetup with a ground station), but the electronics is something that more than a few people would like to examine closely (depending on its age). The camera, in particular, must be very interesting.

Maybe Hugo Chavez will get it?

Actually, I'd guess that the satellites are not designed for entry temperatures, and all that will be found are charred fragments. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire....

Satellites have a tendency to disintegrate, but I'm not sure if spy satellites are built to withstand the heat. Also, the earth is 75 percent water, and the remaining 25 percent is still largely uninhabited. So while this hunk of metal might seem like a really menacing threat--or a really hilarious toilet anvil--the chances of any of that are exceedingly low.
