Hi Al and All,

Wouldn't satellite debris be under the same cold constraints as a meteorite?
In fact, I would bet that since the overall density of a satellite is lower
than than that of rock (my assumption anyway), they would be even less
likely to carry any frictional heat to earth.

Just my thoughts.
