After the recent launch in China, the remnants of the rocket core will gather Do not burn when entering the atmosphere and impact against Earth.

On the other hand, there are scientists who think that the probabilities are very low and there is no need to change the design.

Despite all that, and according to many successes in space flight, President Xi Jinping continues with his goal of making China a space superpower.
