Where is NASA Satellite, some reports it may have hit US land others in Ocean

Is there pictures or video of the satellite hitting earth?

US NASA Satellite in ocean, some reports it may have hit US land.

The dead 6 ton satellite about the size of a bus had been orbiting earth along with 20,000 other items in space.

UARS is the biggest NASA spacecraft to crash to Earth, uncontrolled, since the post-Apollo 75-ton Skylab space station and the more than 10-ton Pegasus 2 satellite, both in 1979.

NASA believes all, or nearly all, of 6-ton spacecraft plunged into Pacific

Some reports are that it may have scattered across North American, Portland, OR, Seattle, WA and areas in that area.

We will be following closely for more reports.

· Its potential debris area
· Burn-up at reentry
· A representative statistical breakup model
