NASA's public affairs office reported that the 23,000-pound Pegasus 2 satellite reentered the Earth's atmosphere at about 4:20 p.m. EST, coming down in the Atlantic Ocean northwest of Ascension Island. The "footprint" of descending debris would have spread over a path 60 miles wide by 1,500 miles long over the South Atlantic, the report said. (Hq PAO, Nov 3/79)
