    The debris from the Delta that reentered over Texas was featured on an
    excellent programme on UK TV's Channel 4 about a year ago on the problem of
    space jumk..I still have it on video.
    
    The fragments were quite large and as I recall the chap from Boeing was most
    surprised that any of it made it to the ground. I understand from the
    programme that Boeing are keen to obtain debris for analysis...could be a
    cottage industry in some places :-)
