Plenty of videos now making the rounds from Surrey, Brighton, even central Paris, showing Sar2667 'burning up' some 100km upon entry into the atmosphere. Its not often objects of this size are picked-up even with only a few hours notice, which goes to show how far advancements in space tech & observations have come over the past 20 years.
