Exactly where do you get the number 10 for kilometers rate of fall per day? I have recorded the numbers almost daily since last November and made a graph recently. Even now it is falling at about 4 km per day. I have read that 200 km is a height where it will decay rapidly and you may be right that 170 km could be the end. Anyhow it should be soon.Count Iblis said:It's a few days before re-entry now:

It is losing height at a rate of about 10 km per day and when it comes below 170 km it will lose that amount of height every hour.
The ISS Toolbag is a container that is used to store tools and equipment on the International Space Station (ISS). It is used by astronauts during spacewalks to assist with repairs and maintenance tasks.
The ISS Toolbag is visible with the naked eye because it reflects sunlight as it orbits around the Earth. This makes it appear as a bright, moving point of light in the night sky.
Yes, anyone can see the ISS Toolbag with the naked eye as long as they are in an area with clear, dark skies and the ISS Toolbag is passing overhead at the right time.
The ISS Toolbag can be seen with the naked eye multiple times a day, depending on your location and the current orbit of the ISS. It typically appears as a bright object moving quickly across the sky.
To spot the ISS Toolbag with the naked eye, you can use a smartphone app or website that tracks the current location of the ISS. You can also check online for the ISS's current orbit and look for it in the night sky at the designated time.
