According to the European Space Agency (ESA), the Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) satellite will run out of fuel and plummet towards the Earth in October.Approximately three-fourths of the satellite will burn up upon reentry but a quarter of it will strew a trail of debris across the planet,  broken into about 40 to 50 fragments. The ESA has no idea where those fragments will land.
