Surprised no one in Spain is saying they spotted it....so, is it down?

Great question! I wonder..

Time in Spain right now is 4:11 a.m. Someone must be up watching these reports

Over Isreal and Jordan now (if still up)

What is the tracker tracking if the rocket could have already crashed?

Now passing over Gaza, if it's still up.

What is the tracker tracking if the rocket could have already crashed?

The calculated trajectory - within a window of 2 hours beginning at 9:00 pm ET (01:00 UTC). It is now 02:21 UTC.

Once it's confirmed that the debris has crashed (hopefully in an ocean), then the "tracker" will stop.

That's fascinating! I hope & pray it goes down in the water and no one is hurt.

I'm hoping and praying for this too.

So fast!

It's so hard to comprehend the speed of this.

The absence of new data sets could indicate #LongMarch5B reentered. This fits both our own latest prediction's uncertainty range and @SpaceTrackOrg predictions. Without confirmed video footage, a decay message or a new data set, we cannot yet confirm. We're still watching.

I heard it landed in the Indian Ocean
