Lots of people sent me links to this news story (thanks!) Looks like Alice Gorman is the scientist who got roped in to comment this time (she's fantastic, I just think it's funny to see who gets stuck with explaining each space junk fall).

Interesting that the local police took such a cautious stance - probably the right thing to do, though as space debris becomes more common, this will become difficult.

Hopefully some silent SpaceX dudes will show up soon in a UHaul.
